It’s not like we’re talking about a fringe group here. We all know people with a disability. It’s good business and the right thing to do.” By the end of the year, businesses with 50 or more employees have to file a com- pliance report with the provincial government outlining how they will address accessibility issues. Businesses “don’t have to be fully accessible by the end of the year. The target is 2025,” Mr. Przybylo noted.

Pickering needs job growth, expanded tax base: mayor Councillors sworn in at inaugural meeting Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The issues Mayor Dave Ryan heard while on the election campaign trail are the ones he plans to focus on in the com- ing term. The Dec. 1 inaugural meeting at Pickering City Hall was both celebratory and procedur- al, as council members were sworn into office and addressed the areas they would like to focus on over the next four years. Mayor Ryan, in his fourth straight term in the role, said he heard while door-knocking in the municipal election that people feel there is a need for more jobs for residents and expanding the City’s tax base to curb property tax increases. “While we’ve experi- enced a great deal of suc- cess over the past 11 years, I look forward to devot- ing more time, energy and resources to these two key areas,” he said. He has spoken with CAO Tony Prevedel to enhance economic develop- ment options in the upcoming budget. “For example Seaton has a tar- get of 30,000 new jobs to Pickering. We have to do the work to (make that) a reality,” he said. Mayor Ryan said the City plans to work with the Province, the Greater Toronto Marketing Alliance and other stakeholders to ensure most of the jobs are high-skilled and well- paying. The vision of the downtown has been approved and is being implemented, and the mayor said by 2030 the City centre will have 10,000 jobs, a combination of retail, office and professional services. He said the City will also experience residential growth: 60,000 new residents to Seaton and 20,000 to the civic centre. For this reason, he believes the City should consider realigning, and a new ward structure should be in place for 2022. “There needs to be an equitable dis- tribution of residents so each mem- ber of council can effectively and fair- ly do their job,” he said. For Pickering to become “one of Ontario’s elite cit- ies” Mayor Ryan said that won’t happen with- out a united vision and he has spo- ken to the councillors about this. “I am encouraged that each of them has committed to working as a more unified and cohesive team and in turn I have made the same commitment,” he said. Ward 3 City Councillor Rick Johnson, who has returned to council after being defeated in the 2010 municipal election, said he also wants to focus on bringing jobs to central Pickering, and taking care of seniors. “We have to continue to work together in this term of office,” he said. The only new face on council, Ward 2 City Councillor Ian Cumming, who defeated Doug Dickerson in the municipal election, said the members he has spoken to have seemed warm and he thinks “the spirit going forward is a good one.” New on City council Returned to City council Ian Cumming Rick Johnson Mayor Dave Ryan ‘‘There needs to be an equitable distribution of residents so each member of council can effectively and fairly do their job.’ Mayor Dave Ryan 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 • De c e m b e r 3 , 2 0 1 4 3 P Monday to Saturday 9:30am to 9:30pm Sunday 10:00am to 6:00pm Early Morning Opening Saturday, December 13th 8:00am to 9:30pm Christmas Eve Wednesday, December 24th 8:30am to 5:00pm Christmas Day Thursday, December 25th Mall Closed Boxing Day Friday, December 26th 8:00am to 6:00pm BEGINNING FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28TH DurhamOptometric Clinic Dr. Farook Khanand Associates 62 Harwood Ave. S., Unit 2, Ajax (905)426-1434 1360 Kingston Rd, Ajax (905)831-6870 Have you had your eyes checked lately? NEW PATIENTS WELCOME 62 Harwood Ave.S.,Unit 2,Ajax (905)426-1434 1360 Kingston Rd,Ajax(905)831-6870 Pickering school honoured with Accepting Schools award Valley View called ‘safe and comforting’ by parent Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- When a school triples its student popula- tion in the space of a few years, making new families feel welcome shoots to the top of the priority list. That was the case at Valley View Public School, which jumped from a little more than 100 students in 2011, to about 300 today. But the Pickering school, located in the hamlet of Greenwood, did more than put out a welcome mat. The last few years have seen a flurry of creative pro- grams aimed at making everyone feel accepted. “We wanted to bridge the gap and build partnerships between new families and existing ones, so this is an inclusive environment for everyone,” says principal Gary Lew. The school’s efforts haven’t gone unnoticed. Valley View P.S. was recently honoured by the Province with the Premier’s Award for Accepting Schools. The local school was one of only 11 in Ontario to receive the award, which recognizes safe schools teams that demonstrate initiative, creativity and leadership to create a safe and inclusive school climate. The nomination was made by students, parents, teach- ers, school staff and community partners -- including Sania Sahi, a Grade 9 student who attended Valley View P.S. for Grades 7 and 8. “The school has done so much for me, this was the best way I could repay them,” she says. “The school is big on education, but even bigger on character.” Examples of the unique programs at Valley View P.S. include: a cultural celebration night hosted at a local community centre, a “Moms Meet Moms” gathering to connect parents, diversity workshops, student leader- ship training, a welcome video for new students and a joint student/parent dialogue evening dubbed “Valley View Voices.” The school’s Safe and Accepting School Crisis Team also renamed itself “We’re Here To Help,” and includes teachers who volunteer their planning time and breaks throughout the day to act as an on-call crisis intervention team. “It’s a very safe and comforting place,” says par- ent Punam Persaud, whose children have attended Val- ley View P.S. for years. “All the teachers know all the stu- dents, it doesn’t matter whether it’s 100 kids or 300 kids.” She also loves the fact that older and younger students play together on the same playground and that the big kids act as mentors. Valley View P.S. has a student advocate program that sees a Durham District School Board facilitator train kids in “restorative practice” techniques. Those students then act as advocates on the playground, assisting their class- mate with problem solving. “There are so many initiatives we’re proud of, it’s an honour to be one of 11 schools to win this award,” the principal notes. “It takes a village to raise a child, and this is a testament to everyone who has helped create this environment.” PICKERING -- Valley View Public School in Greenwood has been honoured by the Province with the Premier’s Award for Accepting Schools. Valley View was nominat- ed by students, parents, teachers, non-teaching staff and community partners.

We cheer them on when they graduate from secondary school, telling them, “Fol- low your dreams, the sky’s the limit. Oh, but if you’re going to continue your education, just know you’ll have to go into debt to get there.” How do you fly with a ball and chain tied to your foot? That’s exactly the strug- gle for thousands of students every year, who haven’t saved, had RESPs set aside for them or don’t have parents who are paying for it. So by the time they are ready to start a family or have a career, they do so with a handicap called debt. I’ve never seen such a killjoy for students as this. But if you don’t have to be certified for your field of interest, then why not skip the middle man? I suggest an alternative: apply to be an intern for a particular entre- preneur or organization, ask your super- visor/trainer to mentor you and when an entry-level position opens up, go for it. Redeem time, save the money you don’t have and resist the cattle prod to enter post-secondary education, especially if you have no business being there. Renae Jarrett E xpanding degree opportunities The unemployment situation facing young people today has many students and parents understand- ably worried. This is particularly so in the context of whether an investment in post-secondary education will lead to a rewarding career. The provincial government has placed a higher priority on increasing post-secondary completion rates than at any other time in our history, which of course means businesses and other organizations are increasingly looking for some type of post-sec- ondary credential when hiring new employees. One of the most important steps the government can take to further post-secondary opportunities is to expand the range of career-focused degree programs at Ontario’s publicly funded colleges. While some col- leges currently offer four-year degrees, most college programs award diplomas and certificates. In effect, Ontario has fallen behind most developed nations, where career-specific degrees are more common. The provincial government knows Ontario’s col- leges can deliver high-quality degree programs given. Independent research that was done for the provin- cial government found the four-year degree programs at colleges were effectively responding to labour-mar- ket demands through a number of unique programs. Durham College will introduce its first-ever degree in 2016, a bachelor of health-care technology manage- ment that is unique to Canada and a program that will place graduates in high demand. Colleges also offer numerous three-year pro- grams, many of which are already aligned with pro- vincial and international standards for degree creden- tials. Yet the colleges must award diplomas to gradu- ates of the three-year programs. Students deserve to earn credentials that recognize their achievements. This is particularly important as growing numbers of employers seek people with degree credentials who also have professional and technical qualifications. Increasing the number of career-specific degree programs at Ontario’s publicly funded colleges will help more young people get the qualifications and advanced skills needed to pursue rewarding careers. Ontario must allow colleges to start offering three- year degrees and expand the range of four-year degree programs at colleges. It’s time to elevate higher education in Ontario to international levels. -- Don Lovisa is president of Durham College. Don Lovisa Durham College Post-secondary education Lakeridge responds well to privacy breach A hospital patient’s expectation of privacy -- and the hospital’s obligation to protect it -- is vital in today’s society. And in our digital world in which the click of button, pressed innocently or with malicious intent, can send information out potentially for all and sundry to see, the safeguarding of such information must be a responsibility taken with great earnest. So, while we must express disappoint- ment in news that 578 patient records at Lakeridge Health in Oshawa were inappro- priately accessed by health care staff at the site, we also commend hospital adminis- trators for getting in front of the breach and publicly releasing the details last week. Lakeridge CEO Kevin Empey made the announcement last week and moved quickly to address concerns about the breach of privacy, explain that 14 staff members have been disciplined, and vowed to work with provincial officials to ensure privacy protocols are met going for- ward. It’s important to note, however, that in this case there was no malice behind the breaches, nor was any of the information shared. Mr. Empey said the breaches were driven by curiosity among health care staff, some of whom may have had contact with a patient in the past who wanted to follow up for themselves to see how that patient was faring. But under existing privacy protocols, the only staff permitted to access records are those directly involved in the so-called “circle of care” of a particular patient. Fur- thermore, Lakeridge staff are required to sign a code of conduct that includes provi- sions regarding patient privacy. However innocent the privacy breaches were, they put the hospital administration in a difficult and embarrassing situation that will cost time and money to address. It could also expose the hospital to civil liti- gation. The breaches also underscore the need for ongoing staff training and awareness, something Mr. Empey vowed to undertake in the coming months. In the simplest terms, it should never have happened. Staff who signed conduct codes should have followed the rules. Hos- pital administrators should have provided better oversight and monitoring. Patients should have had a reasonable expectation of privacy, to the extent that it can exist within the hospital setting and within hos- pital protocols. The good news, however, is that Lak- eridge Health has and is addressing the issue with a sense of immediacy, such that it won’t likely happen again. Mom and Dad: real people Every now and then, when I was a kid, my parents would have a dinner party. These seemed to be important affairs and such evenings would affect the entire family. For starters, we, that is, my five siblings and I, were not on the guest list. That meant, of course, that we had to be fed, cleaned up, possibly put into pyjamas and sequestered somewhere safely away from the action. I don’t recall any of us ever minding this, however. Being fed early usually meant something fun and quick, like hot dogs or Sloppy Joes, served at a table sans parents. The absence of my father and mother meant that many of the normal mealtime rules and regulations could be brazenly ignored. We were a noisy, garrulous bunch at the best of times, but without the iron fist of my Dad and the withering glare of my Mom, our meal gatherings approached the audio vol- ume of a prison cafeteria. And again, my parents actually seemed to encourage this. Hoping, I can only assume, that we would expend enough energy to leave the rest of their adult evening unmolested. I have specific, detailed memories of these nights. To begin with, my Mom would usu- ally prepare something exotic and well out of the price range of our normal pla- toon-sized offerings of beans, potatoes and ground beef. The house became redolent with alluring odours. Items with such alien names such as garlic and rosemary tanta- lized our salt-and-pepper tastebuds. And these meals were never served in the kitchen. Only a place as hallowed and sac- rosanct as the dining room would do for such occasions. The dining room was not a place we children were ever encouraged to visit. We ate there exactly three times a year: Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas, each meal involving a turkey, turnip and tomato juice, regardless of the season. Those holi- day, dining room meals were fancy con- cerns, I recall, but they paled in comparison to my parents’ dinner parties. My parents and their guests ate by candlelight. They drank both wine and water, neither of which was served in a plastic cup. Sometimes my Dad would even put a Herb Alpert record on the stereo, the one with the semi-naked girl covered in whipped cream on the cover, the one we weren’t allowed to look at. Music. This was the height of extravagance for a family used to eating alongside the waspy squawk of Gordon Sinclair and CFRB. From a kid’s perspective these get-togeth- ers were dazzling. The men wore suits and ties and the women arrived in gowns and pearls and smelling wonderfully. Most fascinating of all to my young eyes and ears was the spectacle of seeing my par- ents and their friends laughing and talking. Not like parents but like...well...real peo- ple. No one was admonished to keep their elbows off the table at these meals or to fin- ish their beets or to stop poking their broth- er. There was gaiety, relaxation and a for- bidden fruit called ‘adult conversation’. We were drawn to it like moths to a flame. Unfortunately, we were only admitted a brief audience with the visiting dignitaries. We would be marched in, introduced like the Von Trapp children and then summarily shunted off to the rec room or wherever else we might safely be neither seen nor heard. In retrospect those evenings were impor- tant, for all of us. My parents were afforded the opportunity to be not just parents but people and, equally, if not more important- ly, we were allowed to see them that way. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. 10 Christmas carols Enter Laughing Neil Crone Actor, comic, writer Let’s Talk Weigh in on topics of the day www.facebook. com/newsdurham Poll MOVIE TIME?

RBC offers four financial tips for the holi- days: 1. Have a budget in mind before you start checking off your holiday gift list. This will help ensure you’re only spending what you know you can afford. 2. Curb your “gotta have it” shopping impulses. Count to 30 before impulse buy- ing in a store; delay an online shopping decision by a few hours. 3. Keep a separate savings account for hol- iday/gift expenses. With an account for special expenses, savings won’t get mixed in with your day-to-day cash. 4. Put aside a regular amount into your holiday expenses savings account. By sav- ing $10 a week, for example, you’ll have over $500 by year-end; invest that money in a high interest savings account and you can save even more for your next holiday season.

Amanda Yorke: What about all those policemen driving their vehicles and typing on their computers, they don’t (get) any reprimand? Lisa Falardeau: Cops are not above the law. If you visit the DRPS web- site, there is a form you can fill out to file a complaint about an officer. Colin Williamson: Happens all the time. I work in the trucking industry; next truck that comes in with a video on I will take a photo and post. Nancy McCartan: My four year old was killed by a “distracted” trans- port driver. Hope they suspend his licence! Maybe then he and other transport drivers who partake in anything similar will think twice about the victims of such careless behaviour. We, the victims have to live with the result of such behaviour for the rest of our lives!!! Larry Dickinson: It is very simple. He should lose his licence. Take him off the road and we will all be safer. You can bet this was not the first time he has done this and probably wouldn’t have been his last if he had not been caught. If you make an example of him perhaps the other bad transport drivers will get the message. Please keep in mind that the bad drivers only account for a small % of all transport drivers. Most of them are very safe drivers and kudos to all of those fellows and gals. 10. Joy to the World 9. Good King Wenceslas 8. God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen 7. Angels We Have Heard On High 6.

At a recent special meeting, trustees voted to add new programs and relocate existing ones, with all changes slated to take effect September 2015. New French immersion programs will be added to the unnamed Catholic school in north Oshawa and St. Joseph Catholic School in Uxbridge. Schools in Ajax will see some shuffling -- French programs at Mother Teresa Cath- olic School will move to the new “single- track French centre” at St. Patrick Catholic School, shifting the kindergarten to Grade 8 English program at St. Patrick to St. Jude Catholic School. The changes were prompted by the board’s Discovery 2020 five-year strategic plan and a specific French program study that looked at demographic data, enroll- ment rates and best practices for other French programs in the Province. “The creation of a single-track French centre is an opportunity to enhance sec- ond language instruction for French immersion students,” says Anne O’Brien, director of education for the DCDSB. “By participating in this program, our students will benefit from a language-rich environ- ment which integrates second-language learning opportunities into every aspect of school life.” Parents were informed of the changes with a letter that went home with students on Nov. 4, the day after the special board meeting. The meeting was called with lit- tle notice and the agenda did not specifi- cally make mention of the French program changes or include any reports or motions. Ajax resident Sarah Moorhouse, whose children could end up moving schools as a result of the changes, said parents should have been asked for feedback, or at least notified of the November meeting. “It’s honestly shocking that they would put out an agenda and not say that this was going to be discussed and voted on. It looks like they intentionally hid what they were doing because they didn’t want a bunch of angry parents there,” she says. Responding to questions about how the recent meeting was handled, Ms. O’Brien said there was “no intention of not being transparent.” Trustees and senior administrators have jurisdiction over program changes, Ms. O’Brien says, and aren’t required to con- sult the public in the type of process that is seen with boundary changes or an accom- modation review committee. Trustees also voted on Nov. 3 to review the French programs offered at St. Eliza- beth Seton Catholic School in Pickering.

First, you’ll have to identify your potential sources of retirement income, such as the Canada Pension Plan, Old Age Security and other government programs, as well as a workplace pension if you have one. You’ll also need to consider your personal savings, such as your RRSP orTFSA. Your second step is to determine if a gap exists between the income you can count on during retirement and the money you’ll need to support your retirement lifestyle. A professional financial advisor can help you make this calculation. Your final step is to decide how to close any retirement gap. Unless you want to delay your retirement, or scale down your retirement lifestyle, you may need to contribute more to your RRSP and other investment accounts. You also should consider working with a financial advisor to choose the appropriate mix of investments to help your money grow over time. But in any case, don’t wait too long before you tackle the “When can I retire?” question — because the sooner you start working on it, the better the answer you’ll get.

Bryan yetman With the Christmas holidays fast approaching, I expect that many people will be looking forward to being away from home visiting with family, friends or just vacationing. Seventy percent of all claims paid relate to water damage so I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone to turn off their water and drain their pipes before leaving for their holidays. Repairing water damage is costly and while costs might be covered by insurance, understand that these repairs are extremely disruptive as they can take months to complete. It is the most effective 5 minutes you can spend preparing to take a vacation and leave your worries behind. Going Away? Turn off your Water!A&Q A&Q Insurance 905-427-5888 ext. 122 b.yetman@firstdurham.comFIRSTDURHAM INSURANCE &FINANCIAL Donna Mullings, the vice-chairwoman of the Ajax Accessibility Advisory Commit- tee (AAAC), said, “Of course, people with a disability would like it faster.” She added the Province is taking “a rea- sonable approach” as far as making busi- nesses comply. Mr. Przybylo noted, “I haven’t heard any complaints about” (having to file compli- ance reports). He did point out the board has issued newsletters and bul- letins to members, along with other educational programs and “it hasn’t been brought up. I’m find- ing people just don’t know. “Larger businesses would have a human resources department, which would be up to date on the requirements,” he added. “There’s a lot of confusion. ‘What is it that I have to do? I don’t want to get into trou- ble,’” Mr. Przybylo said. Businesses are also concerned about the costs, he said. “What’s the cost of doing it?” Making businesses 100-per cent acces- sible is “the No. 1 right thing to do. It is a good business practice. A large segment of the population has a disability,” Mr. Przybylo stated. Ms. Mullings noted the advisory com- mittee hasn’t specifically approached businesses about the requirements they need to meet, but members have attend- ed business events and handed out bro- chures titled Accessibility Makes Good Business Sense. “From a strategic measure, we want to make small businesses aware of acces- sibility needs of residents,” Ms. Mullings said. Feedback includes “sometimes they’re not aware of the compliance measures. Some aren’t even aware of the law,” she said. “They don’t know where to get infor- mation.” The Accessibility for Ontarians with Dis- abilities Act was passed in 2005 and it lays out a timeline for businesses to be com- pliant. In terms of providing customer service to clients with a disability, Ms. Mullings said, “Businesses may not be aware of how to do it. ‘How do I make my business more accessible?’ Shelving, making aisles bigger, training staff to deal with someone with a speech impediment or is visually impaired. How do they treat them?” The AAAC provides “awareness on how to get information on being compliant, awareness of the legislation,” she added. Ms. Mullings suffered a spinal cord inju- ry in an automobile accident in 2000. Saying she speaks for the committee, Ms. Mullings said, “We want to make the community as accessible as possi- ble. When I had the accident, I was really unaware of disability issues. What I defi- nitely notice is more awareness about people they encounter. There’s a lot more awareness around disabilities. From 2000 to now, definitely.” Pickering businesses need to address accessibility issues PICKERING from page 1 AJAX -- Donna Mullings, vice-chairwoman of the Town’s Accessibility Advisory Committee, walked up a ramp at the municipal building. Businesses need to file a report with the provincial government by the end of the year on how they will address accessibility issues. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland Paul Przybylo HOW THIS IMPACTS YOU • People with disabilities have $10 billion in buying power, something businesses would be interested in. About 15 per cent of Ontarians have a disability and making the province as barrier free as possible will impact thousands of lives. 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 • De c e m b e r 3 , 2 0 1 4 14 P Spectators treated to more than 70 floats Leeanna McLean lmclean@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Eighteen-month-old Char- lie Carballo’s eyes were on the colour- ful floats as they passed by during the Pickering Santa Claus Parade Saturday. His jaw dropped as he sat on top of his mom’s shoulders, turning his head towards his dad and then back to the parade, “bus,” he shouted pointing to the flashy VIVA Retirement float. “It’s his first time at the parade, our first time too,” said his father, Carlos Carballo. “We just moved here. It’s within walking distance, and we like the parade because of the nice neighbourhood feel.” Despite the cool and windy weather con- ditions, hundreds lined the streets for the annual event. There were more than 70 floats this year. Pickering resident Vanessa Armstrong has been attending the parade since she was a girl. The Rameses Shriners march- ing band has always been Ms. Armstrong’s favourite. “The parade has changed over the years. It was once small and now it’s very big,” she said. Ms. Armstrong recalls being in the parade three times for real estate company Century 21 and Dairy Queen. “My father glued cotton balls on my face one year, I was a shepherd,” she laughed. “It’s a family tradition. Now with my niece and nephew, it just makes it even more fun. I like watching their faces, they are at such a great age for it. Yesterday they were so pumped up, writing their letters to Santa.” “I like Santa Claus,” said Ms. Armstrong’s six-year-old niece Makenna. “Mhm, I’ve been a good girl this year,” she nodded. Like many children, Makenna’s Christ- mas wish list is topped by Frozen’s Elsa and Anna dolls. “I want dinosaurs and metal trains,” called out Makenna’s brother, Jonathan. As the Rameses Shriners paused dur- ing the parade, a musician ran over to the crowd to show off his xylophone. Kya Sam- uels, 7, had the fortunate opportunity to play the instrument. “It was awesome,” she said. “I like it how they let us play, I also like how they deco- rate the cars in the parade.” You could spot Diana Neate from a mile away as she stood in the crowd with her batch of yellow balloons. “I have them so my grandson will see us. He’s in the Cubs,” she laughed. “This is the best Santa Claus parade I’ve seen, we think it’s really good.” Daughter Jennifer Neate says she enjoys getting the family together every year. “It’s a really nice start to Christmas. It gets us in the mood and excited about the holi- days coming up.” Pickering resident Amy Casimir was full of holiday spirit, dancing and singing to Jingle Bell Rock with her son Adam. They save the same spot every year. “I marvel at the organization of it all, how it all comes together,” she says. “We are having so much fun. It brings all of Pickering together, it’s family oriented. You see everyone out having a good time.” Aside from dancing, as part of their annual tradition, the Casimirs enjoy warming up with a nice bowl of chili at a neighbour’s after-party. But the best part of Santa parades is that you get to eat candy first. “I like the candy,” said four-year-old Adam before being handed a toothbrush by one of the parade participants. “Are you going to brush your teeth after all of this candy, Adam?” laughed Ms. Casimir. As Santa made his grand entrance, hun- dreds of children gasped for air. “Look it’s Santa.” “I hear Santa Claus.” “Ho, Ho, Ho,” Ol’ Saint Nick replied. “San- ta’s here, what a beautiful crowd.” Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • De c e m b e r 3 , 2 0 1 4 14 P Scenes from the PickeringSanta Claus Parade PICKERING -- Santa waved to the crowd during the annual Pickering Santa Claus Parade presented by the Kinsmen and Kinette Club of Pickering.

No one was injured during the incident, at a motel on Kingston Road at about 11:40 p.m. Friday, Nov. 28, Durham police said. A 40-year-old woman told cops she had stepped out of her room for a cigarette when a suspect bumped into her, then followed her inside. The suspect produced a small knife and grabbed the woman by the arm as he demanded money, police said. As the woman struggled, the suspect pulled her jacket off; he ran away with the jacket, cash and cigarettes. Police responding to the woman’s 911 call arrested a suspect at a nearby gas sta- tion. A 17-year-old Pickering boy is charged with robbery and weapons possession. His identity is protected by law.

The running back from Whitby, who attended St. Mary Catholic Secondary School in Pickering, was named a CIS First Team All-Canadian. Campbell, the 2014 OUA MVP and OUA First Team All-Star, had a phenom- enal year for the Golden Hawks as he set multiple school records in what was one of the greatest seasons by a running back in CIS history. The kinesiology and physical education major rushed for 1,458 yards, the sixth most ever in a single season in Canadian university history, while finding the endzone 13 times. The rushing yards, as well as his 185 carries, were both Lau- rier single-season records and he also set the single-game school record for yards in a game when he put up 293 on the Toronto Varsity Blues back in week one. The five-foot-eight, 195-pound back also made 12 catches for 206 yards, giv- ing him 1,664 all-purpose yards, a number which represented 46 percent of Laurier’s total offence in 2014. Campbell was a finalist for the Hec Crighton Trophy as the CIS Most Valuable Player but the award went to Calgary quar- terback Andrew Buckley. He would have become just the second player in school history to be recognized as the best uni- versity football player in the country follow- ing in the footsteps of former quarterback Bill Kubas who won the award in 1994. Jr. Lightning finally find back of net Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Finally, the Durham West Jr. Light- ning were able to break on through to the other side. The Provincial Women’s Hockey League club kicked down the doors that have been protecting the opposition’s nets, scoring home-ice wins of 3-0 over Aurora and 5-2 against Kingston on Nov. 29 and 30 respec- tively at the Ajax Community Centre. The eight goals in two games was a wel- comed change from the funk they had been in, scoring just nine times in the past nine games leading into the weekend, and reg- istering just two wins during that stretch. In each of those nine, the Lightning didn’t score more than two goals and were shut out twice. “It was certainly nice to see some of those pucks go in,” said head coach Jeremy Mur- phy with a sense of relief, his team out-shoot- ing the opposition by 38-9 and 47-16 mar- gins. “We’ve amazingly had games similar to that this year where we’ve ended up on the wrong end of the scoresheet. “It was one of those things where we knew we were doing a lot of good things. We want- ed to keep doing what we were doing and we finally got some puck luck.” One goal was all the Lightning needed on Saturday night, as goaltender Rebecca Clark had an easy time recording the shut- out, facing just nine shots in the 3-0 victory over Aurora. After a scoreless opening peri- od, Saroya Tinker opened the scoring on the power play and Charlea Pedersen added one shortly after for a 2-0 lead through two. Emily Jukosky added one midway through the third, as the Lightning fired 38 shots all told. Sunday afternoon the barrage continued, this time 47 shots led to a 5-3 win over Kings- ton. With a 2-2 tie, three goals in a row in the last half of the third period, two of them cour- tesy of the power play, closed out the scoring, lifting the Lightning to victory. Alyssa Gee had the winner, just 21 seconds after Kings- ton had tied the game at two. Katrina Manou- karakis and Taylor McManus had power-play goals later for insurance. Manoukarakis also opened the scoring in the first period, while Maria Dominico had the other goal. Tera Hofmann registered the win in goal. Contributions came from every line, with the defence also pitching in. “We’ve talked about it since the beginning,” of the season said Murphy. “We’re pretty balanced. If we get 45 shots a game they are coming from all the lines. They’re coming from the D. It’s a balanced effort.” Now 11-5-4-0 in league play, the Lightning will play in a Can-Am tournament in Kitch- ener-Waterloo, scheduled to face teams from British Columbia, Quebec and Alaska. Pair of Generals get world junior tryout call Brian McNair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- The Oshawa Generals could be without as many as four players during the 2015 world junior hockey championships. A day after Michael Dal Colle was named to the training camp roster for Canada, Cole Cassels was extended the same invitation Tuesday for the rival United States. Cassels is an interesting case, being a cit- izen of both countries, but also facing a 10-game Ontario Hockey League suspen- sion that could see him miss the tourna- ment’s first two games should he be chosen to the final roster of the U.S. team and the suspension not get reduced. “I couldn’t be happier to see Cole be invit- ed to the USA selection camp,” GM Roger Hunt said in a Generals’ press release. “He has paid his dues as a General and has developed into a leader and will continue on to be a great pro.” The Generals, owners of the best record in the OHL at 20-3-1-0, will lose defenceman Sonny Hertzberg to Denmark and possibly forward Tobias Lindberg, one of 30 hopefuls to play for Sweden. Cassels is the son of Canadian Andrew Cassels, who spent 16 years in the NHL, and was born in Ohio while his dad was still playing. A six-foot, 180-pound centre, Cassels is having a breakout season with the Generals, and was leading the team in points with 39 through 22 games prior to his suspension. Dal Colle has since passed Cassels for the team lead, with 41 points in 22 games, and was named to Canada’s 29-player selection camp roster Monday. “Obviously that’s been my goal ever since I was a kid, is to represent my country at the under-20s, so I hope to make that team and I’m trying to make a statement up until I hopefully get the invite to camp,” Dal Colle said after a recent game, before he was cho- sen. Dal Colle will leave the Generals after this weekend for the Canadian camp, which begins Dec. 11 at the MasterCard Centre for Hockey Excellence in Toronto. The U.S. training camp runs Dec. 16-19 in Boston. Both Dal Colle and Cassels are among 17 forwards likely looking for 13 spots on their respective teams, which will be chosen by Dec. 25. The world junior tournament runs from Dec. 26 to Jan. 5 in Toronto and Montreal, with Canada and the U.S. meeting Dec. 31 at 4 p.m. in Montreal.
