But she says Durham Region Transit servic- es can often become a roadblock. Last-minute plans are usually out of the question for Ms. Rioux, who has to book her rides for DRT specialized transit seven days in advance to secure a ride. “How can you plan your life a week in advance?” she says. “I do because I don’t have a choice.” If she calls to book any closer to the date, she has trouble getting a ride.

The Board of Trade held its Business Excellence Awards on Oct. 9 at the Ajax Convention Centre, celebrating 20 years of handing out the honours. The awards were established in 1994 to recognize achievements and excellence in business perfor- mance, while the business person category was added in 2004. All nominees are selected by their business peers and an independent panel of judges evaluates the nominees. Allan Arsenault of the Pickering Town Centre and Ashmeed Khan of Minuteman Press were both rec- ognized for business person of the year. “It’s a humbling experience to be honoured like that in front of so many people and it’s quite a hon- our,” said Mr. Arsenault, a Durham resident of more than 28 years who has been the general manager of Pickering Town Centre since 1991. He’s held a number of positions over the years, which include general manager, regional manag- er and national director of marketing at Oshawa Centre. Mr. Arsenault is the only person to manage both regional malls in the region nearing a span of 30 years. Mr. Khan opened his first Minuteman franchise store in Ajax in 2006, and bought two more with- in the next three years. Those stores were then amalgamated to one large facility he purchased in Pickering. Mr. Khan currently uses his free time as director with APBOT and chairman of the diversity committee. He said he finds most of his employees through the YMCA and the John Howard Society. “We try to give them a shot,” said Mr. Khan. Having moved to Canada from Guyana 12 years ago, he was pleased to accept the award and said he’s grateful for the diversity and acceptance in the Ajax and Pickering communities. The 2014 Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade pres- ident, Paul Przybylo of Walker Head Lawyers, said the Board of Trade is proud to recognize the achievements of such an exceptional field of nomi- nees. “There are so many outstanding businesses and business people represented here, including many past BEA winners, and it is wonderful to celebrate members of our community who epitomize excel- lence,” he said. Mr. Arsenault said the Board of Trade is an important and proactive part of the community. “I consider myself being a winner just being nominated,” he said.

Metropolitan Toronto owned Brock West, as well as sites called Brock North and Brock South. Metro Toron- to decided Brock South would be the site for the new landfill. That’s when the trouble started. Shortly after Metro turned its eye to Brock South, which sits on the 5th Concession in Ajax, next to Green- wood Conservation Area, a group of citizens began mobilizing and it quickly snowballed into a force. They called themselves PACT (Pickering-Ajax Citizens Together for the Environment) and for more than a decade, they successfully battled Metro and stopped the landfill in its tracks. On Saturday, some members of PACT gathered at the Greenwood Conservation Area to be recognized by the Town of Ajax and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority for their efforts. About 30 people attended the ceremony. Former PACT president Bill Parish joked, “When this started, I was a young man. “On behalf of PACT, the people here and the people not here, a heartfelt thanks to the Town of Ajax, the mayor and council of the Town of Ajax, Gord McPher- son and the TRCA for honouring us,” he added. Mr. Parish noted it was a “long, hard battle. It went from 1987 to 2000.” Successive executives took over each year and “we kept at it. It’s so easy to burn out. We wouldn’t have been triumphal if we didn’t have the overwhelming support of the people of Pickering and Ajax,” he said. In addition to moral support, people helped finan- cially, he added. “We were fighting three levels of government. We were fighting provincial governments of all three stripes, Liberal, NDP and Conservative,” he noted. With Durham Region supporting Metro, “The battle was a tough one. We needed people who dedicated themselves to an important cause. Without those peo- ple, we never would have got through,” said Mr. Parish. “Metro Toronto was driving the bus and the clowns at Durham Region were going along with them. Just like they’re doing now with York Region and the sewage plant. Thank God for the council of Ajax, which puts the environment first, from the lakeshore to the 5th Con- cession,” he added. “I’m so happy the 250 acres became a park and not a dump,” Mr. Parish said. “Everyone told us we wouldn’t win this in a legal battle. We would win it with public support.” Ajax Mayor Steve Parish, Bill Parish’s son, noted, “It was well over 25 years ago we were involved in these fights. They were going to build a dump just over there,” pointing to the Brock South site. “Now, we have the Brock South lands part of the Greenwood Conservation Area,” he added. “PACT real- ly gave impetus to how important solid waste was and we shouldn’t be the recipient of other people’s waste.” The name PACT grew out of ACT -- Ajax Citizens Together. That group banded together in the early 1980s to fight a provincial government plan to build an industrial liquid waste facility in the Town. PACT began at a meeting held at the home of then-MPP Norah Stoner. Brock West is on the Third Concession, just west of Brock Road. In addition to Metro’s garbage, Durham Region municipalities also dumped trash there. It was closed and capped in 1997. Mayor Parish noted the underlying soil at Brock South was sandy and leachate (liquid created by garbage decaying in the landfill) would have made its way into groundwater. “Metro said ‘we can engineer anything. We can put in a liner and everything will be fine’,” Mayor Parish said. “If the dump was there, leachate would have come out of there now. It would be coming out when my great-grandchildren go to meet their maker. Leachate would be coming out forever.” At the time, Metro covered the entire Toronto area, much like Durham Region does here. The City of Toronto was part of Metro, as were Scarborough, Etobicoke, North York, East York and York. Metro was done away with when the new ‘megacity’ of Toronto was formed on Jan. 1, 1998. Mayor Parish said Durham Region council was supportive of Metro’s plans. At a large dump meeting, attended by thousands at the Pickering Recreation Complex, then Regional chairman Gary Herrema and Oshawa councillor John Aker “and a few oth- ers left the arena ashen faced. “It’s always been a dream of mine and my council colleagues to have the Brock South lands be part of the Greenwood Conserva- tion Area,” Mayor Parish said. “We preserved these lands and saved Duffins Creek from disaster. It’s all because of this group who made it happen 25 years ago,” Mayor Parish said. “When citizens are all dedicated to a common cause, you are unstoppable. We all benefited 25 years ago and we benefit today.” Gord McPherson of the TRCA said when he lived in Pickering 25 years ago, he could smell the Brock West dump, even by Hwy. 401. “Things sure have changed. One of the legacies of PACT is environmental restoration and monitoring,” Mr. McPherson said. “I’m so excited. It’s an opportunity and potential to convert- ing land to recreation. It’s the opportunity of a career to work on that.” AJAX — The Town of Ajax and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority honored the efforts of the Pickering-Ajax Citizens Together (PACT) in support of the enviroment and its campaign in the 1980s and 1990s to stop Metropolitan Toronto from opening a dump next to the Greenwood Conservation Area. Former members of the group gathered at the conservation area with Ajax and TRCA officials to remember the fight. A plaque hon- ouring PACT will be installed at the conservation area. Keith Gilligan / Metroland 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 6 , 2 0 1 4 5 P “Then it’s almost impossible to book for the weekend,” says Ms. Rioux. “They definitely need more drivers.” Sometimes, DRT will have a ride available for her one way, but not back. “You know what I’ve been told? ‘Pay for a cab to come back’,” she says. She often needs a ride home from the GO Station and rather than pay the cost of a taxi if a specialized transit ride is not available, she will use her scooter to get home. This takes her about 25 minutes. “And when it’s pouring rain, it’s awful,” she says, adding it can be dangerous, too. Ms Rioux shared her concerns with the Durham Region Transit commission on Oct. 8. That same day, Pickering Council- lor Bill McLean, who is currently seeking re- election, raised the issue at the last Durham Regional council meeting of the term. “It’s a real issue,” said Coun. McLean. He noted Ms. Rioux is not the only Pickering resident who has complained about specialized service. In September, a group of Durham resi- dents with disabilities marched from Memo- rial Park to DRT offices in Oshawa, most using wheelchairs or scooters, to express their similar frustrations with DRT. Coun. McLean, if re-elected, plans to raise the issue during the next budget discus- sions. Oshawa Councillor Amy England, also seeking re-election, hears many complaints and says specialized transit needs more funding in order to better accommodate res- idents. “That’s our first problem is that we are not funding it appropriately,” she says. “We are in a deficit position.” DRT general manager Vincent Patter- son says specialized transit is on the path to going $400,000 to $500,000 over budget this year, but it may be a little lower due to vari- ous efficiencies DRT has made. For example, electronic screens have been installed for the operators on the specialized buses. So if there is a route or pickup change, drivers will be notified immediately. He says ridership on specialized transit should reach almost 195,000 in 2014, how- ever there was no increase in budget from 2013 to 2014. “Our objective is clear, to increase the pro- ductivity of the resources we have,” he says. As of mid-September, 99.5 per cent of trip requests were accommodated at the time the user requested, higher than national standards. “Right now my position is I can meet the national average with the budget I have,” he says. “Can I use more money? Of course I can.” He says since all DRT buses are now acces- sible, hopefully more people with disabili- ties can use these conventional buses and free up space for those who cannot. Ms. Rioux, for example, cannot use conventional buses due to her visual impairment. Ms. Rioux also has trouble cancelling her rides. Since she has to book well in advance, if she has to cancel her pre-arranged ride, she says she has to wait on the phone until she speaks to someone. Many times she will just hang up because she doesn’t want to waste the battery on her phone. These times, a ride is sent for her anyway, wasting money, and possibly causing someone else to miss out on a ride, she says. She feels a special cancellation line would alleviate the prob- lem. Mr. Patterson says DRT is considering the possibility of allowing people to book and cancel services online, which would help the situation.

The Rouge Valley Health System is help- ing patients who don’t hear well, or at all, communicate about their health, with an assist from technology, by adding American Sign Language to its interpretation services. In the program, iPads are used so a health- care worker can reach a live online inter- preter. The interpreter signs what is being said by doctors and health professionals so both patients and hospital staff are on the same page. Even better, there is minimal cost to the hospital so there is no charge to the patient. But to ensure that the live connection is not broken a significant amount of band- width is needed. David Brazeau, the hospital’s director of public affairs, community relations and telecommunications says while it’s not a daily request at the hospital, there was a need in the community. He added that “not too many hospitals are doing this.” They should be. This is an excellent addition to the hos- pital to aid people who can feel left out as deaf and hearing-impaired individuals. Now, such a person doesn’t have to strain and struggle to be understood. And when you’re communicating information about your health, information that could be cru- cial, this is vitally important. It is an example of how our society is evolving to consider everybody’s needs. There was a time when services were geared to the average, able-bodied person. They are the majority, it was reasoned. However, as the notion of inclusivity has taken hold, we understand that leaving one segment of society out in the cold, with ser- vices not geared to their needs, means a group is being excluded. And more than that, we realize the intrinsic value of includ- ing as many people as possible. We have seen this in, for example, the number of people coming to Canada from other parts of the world. Government and other services are now provided in a vari- ety of languages since for many people Eng- lish is not their first language. Rouge Val- ley Health System already offers a phone interpretation service, where patients have access to the interpretation of more than 200 languages. Universal health care can’t be for every- body if people are excluded. For the deaf and hearing impaired, they can now access our hospital, communicate with a physician and be understood. This pilot program should be made per- manent. When is the taxpayer appreciation gala? To the editor: What gives Durham Region the right to spend taxpayers dollars on an employee appreciation gala on Oct. 18 for employ- ees? I would like to know where the taxpayers’ appreciation gala is being held, where I can get a free gift, a free meal -- with drinks -- and a certificate for the years of service I and my fellow taxpayers have contributed. As usual, let’s spend the taxpayer dol- lars with no thought about the taxpayer. Where could this money better used in the region? Let’s see: Garbage, and recycling con- tainers with lids, along with new trucks to perform more efficiently on collection days, as well as containers at every bus stop. Can you also please pass a bylaw where all employers in Durham Region must show their employees just how much they are valued? By giving them a gift, a meal with drinks and perhaps a certificate of appreciation for their years of service. This shows disregard for taxpayers who are substantially under-paid compared to a Durham Region worker with benefits and a pension. In closing, keep up the good work on spending the taxpayers’ dollars. There’s more money available, just raise our taxes. Ron Campbell Put pressure on MPs for pressure test To the editor: Many of you are aware of the federal government and Enbridge Gas efforts to change current natural gas line No. 9 to oil pipeline No. 9. While there are many regulations imposed, there is no regulation that would prevent a breach of the pipeline. The fed- eral government has said that the pipe- line will only carry light oil and not crude, known as bitumen, but we have no guar- antees and no safeguards that this will not be the case. None of the 30 regulations can prevent a change in the grade of oil. Why am I concerned? The oil will travel through rivers and creeks as well as three conserva- tion areas, golf courses, the newly estab- lished Rouge National Urban Park, as well as residents’ farms and backyards. The current pipeline is close to 40 years old and will be under increased pressure and friction. It was not designed to be a line for oil. The Province of Ontario asked that the pipeline be pressure tested with water to help ensure its safety. The federal government and Enbridge said no. I am asking you to say yes; to our chil- dren, our greenspaces, and the safety of our drinking water. Contact federal MPs to demand a water pressure test. It’s the least they can do to ensure that this isn’t a disas- ter in the making.

SPSC president Ed Fry said more than 830 seniors -- 66 per cent of whom are between 65 and 80 -- are members of the club and it’s all volunteer-run. “Six days a week something is going on day and night,” he said. “The City couldn’t afford to hire people to do it.” The SPSC, which charges just $20 for an annual membership, incurs a lot costs for small items, such as bingo cards and dart board matt replacements, and larger needs such as flooring and washrooms repairs, all of which add up. That’s why Ed Fry was pleased when he learned about the funding for the centre. “Our club is 40 years old so things are wear- ing out,” he said. The funding will help the centre maintain its operations and make small renovations, including the installation of software, flooring repairs, an automatic door and washroom upgrades. Mayor Dave Ryan, seeking re-election in the municipal election, said it’s an important investment because the senior population is a growing one in the community. “The fact that they’re focusing on our senior community is a great benefit for us,” he said. According to the Province, by 2016, for the first time, people older than 65 will account for a larger share of the population than children aged 14 and under.

Dunbarton High in Pickering named Canada’s greenest school Moves on to Greenest School on Earth event DURHAM -- In the last five years, Dunbarton High School has undergone a green transfor- mation that has earned it the title of Greenest School in Canada. An annual competition put on by The Can- ada Green Building Council and the Cana- da Coalition for Green Schools seeks to find schools across the country that show how sustainability can be woven into the infra- structure, culture and curriculum of a school. Dunbarton was selected by a jury com- prised of green building industry experts from across the country. The school was recognized for a number of sustainable measures. For example, it has installed new, more energy-efficient win- dows that can be opened for fresh air, new exterior brickwork with underlying foam insulation for greater energy efficiency, and fluorescent lighting which operates at a lower wattage and glare. Classrooms include recycling bins and signage that directs staff and students how to keep selected light banks off and reduce lighting consumption. They also have a des- ignated box for scrap paper that can be used in lieu of new paper. A rooftop solar hot water heating system preheats water in the cafete- ria, gym and some washrooms. “There is an attitude here that it is not good enough to just talk about being green; we must act to make the community greener in a real and sustainable way,” said teacher David Gordon, the school’s EnviroClub program leader. “The students at Dunbarton High School have this attitude and jump at the opportunity to exercise leadership and act to make the community more sustainable.” The creation of ‘bee condos’ that encour- age pollination, local park rehabilitation efforts and rain barrel sales also contributed to the title. Since a green bin service is not available to the school, Dunbarton co-ordinates organ- ic waste collection with local neighbours in order to keep this waste from landfill. The school also offers an Atlantic salmon restora- tion program as a part of the curriculum. Grade 9 students who are new to the school get a stainless steel water bottle, refillable at five filling fountains. As the winner of the competition, Dunbar- ton will receive $2,000 to put toward a green activity and becomes the official Canadian entry into the Greenest School on Earth com- petition, awarded annually by the Center for Green Schools at the U.S. Green Building Council. Winners will receive an additional $1,000 to put toward a new or ongoing sus- tainability project.

This is only a test: Nuclear sirens in Pickering tested on Oct. 28 and 29 Public alerting system tested within 10km of Pickering plant DURHAM -- People living near the nuclear plants in Clar- ington and Pickering who hear sirens or receive an indoor notification on Oct. 28 and Oct. 29 should keep in mind it’s only a test and no action is necessary. The Region of Durham will be testing the public alerting system within the 10-kilometre area of the Pickering and the Darlington nuclear power plants during daytime busi- ness hours on Oct. 28. On that day residents will receive indoor notification, which is the automated telephone dialing system. On Oct. 29, the outdoor sirens will sound for up to one minute. The public alerting system is designed to warn residents and businesses in the unlikely event of a nuclear emer- gency. It consists of two components: outdoor sirens installed within three kilometres of the station; and an automated telephone dialing system for indoor notification within the 10-kilometre area. Only households and businesses with a landline in this area will receive the indoor notification. For more information, visit www.durham.ca/demo or call 1-866-551-5373.

This month’s question and answer is from Becky George, local history and gene- alogy librarian for Pickering Public Library. It’s a perfect questio for October, what with Halloween just around the corner. Question: Is my house haunted? Answer: Many people experience things they can’t explain and when they live in one of the many historic homes in Pickering. They often get in touch with me to find out if there have been any grisly deaths or past haunting stories associated with their property. There are numerous records to look into to explore this particular ques- tion including census records, cemetery records and historic newspapers. The hamlet of Whitevale is a Heri- tage Conservation District and a num- ber of haunting stories originate here. My favourite is the story of the unknown stranger. In 1854 a young man stopped at the inn for the night. He died in his sleep and had no belong- ings to help identify him. Relations never came looking for him and so he was bur- ied in the Whitevale cemetery marked with a head- stone reading ‘An Unknown Stranger 1854’. Since then many mysterious sight- ings and occurrences have been report- ed at the inn and surrounding homes. What unfinished business might the stranger have?

It’s that and making beautiful music together with 150 of her friends in the Toronto-based chorus that have kept the Ajax resident performing with the group for the past 17 years. “We strive for excellence all the time. That’s part of the joy of belonging to the group,” noted Kitchen, 45, of the North Metro Chorus, which was founded in 1967 as part of the Sweet Adelines Inter- national movement, where the all-wom- en choruses sing a cappella, four-part barbershop harmony. Since then, the NMC -- which has members from age 25 right up to 85 -- has gone on to become the most success- ful and most decorated chorus in the his- tory of Sweet Adelines International. For Kitchen, it’s all about the special camaraderie amongst the members, who come from all over the GTA and as far away as Buffalo, Peterborough, Graven- hurst and Holland Landing to the week- ly rehearsals at a Toronto Macedonian church. The NMC boasts a large Durham Region contingent, with 22 members coming from Ajax, Pickering, Whitby, Oshawa, Courtice and Zephyr. “It’s like a big family, absolutely,” said Kitchen of the chorus. “It brings you up when you’re going through hard times. It’s a very supportive group and a very tight-knit group.” Kitchen and official NMC spokeswom- an Linda Keyes, who’s been with the cho- rus for 14 years, explained it’s simply about being a part of an incredibly suc- cessful group that drew each of them to join. “I was singing with the Kingston choir at the time and June (Dale, the North Metro Chorus director) came to coach us. They had just won at internationals for the first time and I was blown away when I saw the video. I moved to Toronto and went to a rehearsal and wanted to be a part of it,” said Kitchen. For Keyes, she had long been an admir- er of the chorus’s work before finally get- ting the courage to travel to Toronto for an audition and eventually join. “There’s a chorus that operates five minutes away from my (Oakville) home, but I chose to come to Toronto because the NMC is very competitive, energetic and family-run. Everyone here has a love of music,” said Keyes. “I had watched this group for six or seven years. I saw them compete and always was in awe of them. My jaw dropped every time they sang. I won- dered if I could be part of it. So, I got up the nerve to audition and I passed it, so I joined.” The NMC is the most successful Sweet Adelines franchise in all of Canada. It won its fourth Sweet Adelines Interna- tional title in 2012 in Denver and has the distinction of being the first and only Canadian chorus to win international honours. Moreover, the NMC has won each and every regional competition for which it’s been eligible for the past 40 years. Earlier this year, in Syracuse, NY in May, the NMC began its journey toward another Sweet Adelines International title by winning the Regional 16 competi- tion. Performing its Toy Soldiers routine complete with elaborate costumes and choreography, the NMC earned the gold medal over 20 other choruses, while also receiving the highest marks ever award- ed to a chorus with a mark of 756 out of 800. Only two other choruses have ever achieved that mark in competition. “There were 1,200 people that came to the competition and the experience was wonderful,” noted Keyes. “We worked hard for it. We got on stage in Syracuse and did exactly what we wanted to do. It was thrilling.” With the regional win in Syracuse, the NMC will get another chance to sing against other Canadian and U.S. chorus- es at the international competition in Las Vegas in October 2015. But, before that, the NMC will perform its regional-title-winning Toy Soldiers show at two shows at the Global King- dom Ministries at 1250 Markham Rd. in Scarborough on Saturday, Nov. 15. Show times are 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available through the group’s website at www.northmetrochorus.com. Kitchen and Keyes said they hope to be around the family atmosphere that envelops the chorus for many years to come. “I really do plan on singing with them forever, “ said Keyes with a laugh. “I keep reading things on the Internet of how singing is good for you. I believe that some of the women who are in their 80s who sing with us are there because of singing. It’s proven that singing is good for your heart, mind and soul. I’ll do it until they tell me to go home.” To view a NMC performance, click on the following video link: https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=p0ql3RyvktY TORONTO -- The Toronto-based North Metro Chorus performed their Toy Soldiers routine at the Region 16 Sweet Adelines competi- tion in Syracuse, New York in May.

Her women’s soccer team stayed unbeaten in Mid-American Conference play on Friday night as they battled Northern Illinois to a 0-0 draw on the road. In net, Dougall, a freshman, contin- ued her strong play for the Bulls as she earned her eighth shutout of the season, moving her into a tie for second place in shutouts in a season in program history. Dougall needs just two more shutouts to tie the record currently held by Ainsley Wheldon. On Sunday afternoon, Buffalo kept its unbeaten mark intact as it battled the Western Michigan Broncos to a 1-1 draw. With the tie, UB now sits in first place in the MAC east standings with 14 points and set a program record for the best start in MAC play, 4-0-2. Down the stretch of the second half, Dougall came up big for the Bulls as she made back-to-back diving saves to force overtime. Dougall finished the game with six saves and now owns a record of 8-2-3 on the season with a goals-against average of 0.39. Setting up to send one back from where it came from OSHAWA -- Adam Christopher, from Dunbarton High School, concentrated on the ball in LOSSA junior tennis action at the UOIT/Durham College campus tennis centre. Jason Liebregts / Metroland Pickering’s Jordan Ramsay helps lead UOIT to victory Ridgebacks men’s hockey team beats No. 9 ranked McGill 3-2 in home opener OSHAWA -- Goals by Pickering’s Jordan Ramsay and Ajax’s Colt Kennedy helped the UOIT men’s hockey team earn a 3-2 victory over the No. 9-ranked McGill Redmen Saturday night in the Ridge- backs’ 2014/15 home opener. The win marks the first time in program history that the Ridgebacks have beat McGill, with the Redmen winning their previous six meetings. UOIT is 2-0-1 to start the season, having recorded points in its first three games. UOIT’s offence heated up in the second period, as it scored all three of the goals in the middle frame. Ramsay got the Ridgebacks on the board five minutes in, but McGill’s Pat- rick Delisle-Houde struck back less than a minute later. The turning point in the game came with five minutes to go in the second when defender Jake Logan fed Kennedy up the middle. Kennedy split the McGill defence and beat McGill goaltender Karel St. Laurent for his first of the sea- son. UOIT followed up Kennedy’s goal with one more two minutes later, when Mike Robinson recorded his first career OUA goal, with Mike Whiteside of Ajax picking up his second assist of the peri- od. McGill’s Jonathan Brunelle cut the Ridgebacks lead to 3-2 midway through the final stanza, but that is as close as the Redmen came UOIT held on for the one- goal victory. UOIT will be back on home ice on Thursday, Oct. 16 when they host the Queen’s Gaels.

Generals get the message Brian McNair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- It’s been obvious since he first set foot in Oshawa that D.J. Smith is a coach who gets the most out of his players on most nights. And when he doesn’t, he’s not shy about letting them know about it. Smith’s message was heard loud and clear by the Oshawa Generals over the Thanksgiving long week- end, when they responded to a sub-par effort Sunday in Ottawa with their most complete game of the season the next day, a 7-1 blowout over the 67’s at the Gen- eral Motors Centre. “I was very clear as to what I wanted,” said Smith, whose team looked completely different than it did in a 4-1 loss to the 67’s in Ottawa. “I thought we got embar- rassed offensively (Sunday). I thought we did a good job defen- sively, but only to get 21 shots on the road with some of the players that we have was not acceptable. We’ve got to start shooting more pucks and driving the net and (Monday) we did that.” Did they ever. With contributions from every- one in the lineup, the Generals dominated Monday’s game from start to finish, scoring 53 seconds into the game, building leads of 3-0 through one and 6-1 through two, and out-shooting the 67’s 51-19. Josh Sterk led the way with a pair of goals, including the open- er, while Cole Cassels, Michael Dal Colle, Bradley Latour and rookie Anthony Cirelli each had a goal and an assist, for Cirelli his first OHL goal. The Generals are perfect at home this season, at 5-0-0-0, and back atop the OHL’s Eastern Conference with a 6-1-1-0 record overall, one point up on the Bel- leville Bulls (6-1-0-0). A busy weekend awaits, includ- ing a Sunday clash with the unbeaten Sault Ste. Marie Grey- hounds (7-0-0-0) at 6:05 p.m. at the GM Centre. Before that, the Generals host the Sarnia Sting (3-3-1-0) Friday at 7:35 p.m. and travel to Owen Sound (4-2-0-2) Saturday.
