Ajax-Pickering
hospital will get
new president
and CEO
Rik Ganderton
continues to make
$222.50 per hour
until new CEO starts
Kristen Calis and Keith Gilligan
kcalis@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- The Rouge Valley Health System’s
interim chief executive officer Rik Gander-
ton will continue making more than $5,000
per week until his contract ends at the end of
May.
In June, he will be replaced by Andree Robi-
chaud, joining the organization as the new
president and CEO.
Ms. Robichaud has been the president and
CEO of the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sci-
ences Centre since 2010, and acting CEO of
the Thunder Bay Regional Research Institute
since November 2014.
“Andree brings an exceptional record of
leadership and experience to our hospital,
including a good understanding of the cur-
rent health system challenges and oppor-
tunities,” says Joan Wideman, chairman of
Rouge Valley Health System board of direc-
tors.
Mr. Ganderton officially stepped down on
Jan. 31, 2014, and signed a temporary con-
tract as interim CEO from June 28, 2014 to
Dec. 31, 2014. As of Jan. 1 of this year, the hos-
pital extended Mr. Ganderton’s temporary
contract, and the employment agreement
states that from that time until May 29, 2015,
he is being paid $222.50 per hour.
Mr. Ganderton works three days, or 22.5
hours per week, making his weekly income
$5,006.25, and the scheduling of hours is
mostly up to him. His pay rate incorporates
a reduction of 2.5 per cent in wages from
his base salary, which is required under the
Excellent Care for All Act.
Mr. Ganderton has been the president and
CEO of Rouge Valley since January 2007,
when he joined the hospital in an interim
capacity. He officially accepted the role as
president and CEO in September 2010.
The agreement in his current role states
Mr. Ganderton is not required to be physi-
cally present on site during the term, but if he
is needed at the hospital for a period of time,
travel expenses to and from his current loca-
tion will be covered by the hospital.
As a temporary employee he receives a
cash payment in lieu of benefits and vacation
pay.
Hospital spokesman David Brazeau said
Mr. Ganderton will remain until the transi-
tion period with Ms. Robichaud is complete.
Ms. Wideman acknowledged Mr. Gander-
ton for his contributions to the hospital.
“During his eight years as CEO, Rik led
the organization into financial stability and
through transformational changes benefit-
ing patient care,” she said. “We are grateful
that he will remain with us until the transition
period is complete.
“The RVHS board of directors believes that
Ms. Robichaud will build on these achieve-
ments and help us forge a new chapter of
excellent patient care with our staff, physi-
cians, midwives and volunteers.”
She adds, “I thank our RVHS board of direc-
tors executive search committee for their dil-
igent work in selecting our new CEO from
a large field of highly qualified candidates
across the country.”
Ms. Robichaud’s past roles include: presi-
dent and CEO of the Vitalite Santa Region
Health Authority, one of two health corpo-
rations in New Brunswick; chairing the Con-
ference of Federal Provincial Deputy Minis-
ters Advisory Committee on Health Delivery
and Health Human Resources; and a board
member on the Atlantic Cancer Research
Institute. She is currently a board member of
the Ontario Hospital Association.
“I look forward to working with the board,
physicians, midwives, staff, patients and the
community as we form our plans and imple-
ment actions to constantly improve patient
care in Scarborough and Durham,” said Ms.
Robichaud.

Claremont Public among
top Durham
schools in
rankings
Fraser Institute
scores in Durham range
from 9.1 to 2.0 out of 10
DURHAM -- Earl A. Fairman Public
School in Whitby leads Durham Region
elementary schools in the Fraser Institute’s
annual student performance rankings,
released Sunday, March 1.
The Whitby school scored a 9.1 out of 10
in the institute’s rankings, landing 63rd on
a list of 3,037 Ontario schools evaluated.
At the other end of the scale, Mary Street
Community School in Oshawa was the low-
est-ranked Durham school, scoring a 2.0.
The rankings are based on an analysis
of factors including each school’s perfor-
mance on Education Quality and Account-
ability Office assessments of student profi-
ciency in testing on Grade 3 and Grade 6 lit-
eracy and numeracy.
Also considered in the rankings are fac-
tors such as the number of students for
whom English is a second language, and
the percentage of students with spe-
cial needs. The tables also show five-year
trends in individual schools’ results.
Also among the top-ranked schools
in Durham are Father Joseph Venini in
Whitby, with a score of 9.0, followed by
Claremont Public, 8.9; Elizabeth B. Phin
in Pickering, 8.7, and William Dunbar in
Pickering, 8.6.
The bottom-ranked elementary schools
are all in Oshawa. In addition to Mary Street
Community, they are Dr. C.F. Cannon, 2.9;
Glen Street Public, 2.8; Gordon B. Attersley,
2.5, and Hillsdale Public. 2.3.
As in past years, DDSB officials were
quick to question the value of the Fraser
Institute’s analysis.
“We’ve always said we’re not sure what
kind of value we get from ranking schools,”
says DDSB superintendent Luigia Ayotte.
She says each school is unique and that
it’s impossible to capture the work being
done in a single ranking.
Ms. Ayotte says the DDSB mirrors the
province when it comes to EQAO scores
and has been seeing improvements -- one
area that still needs work is Grade 6 math
scores.
“We have a strategic plan, we’re looking at
clear goals and strategies,” she said in refer-
ence to the math outcomes.
In an introduction to the report card,
study authors said the exercise is under-
taken with a view to highlighting strengths
and weaknesses in the public education
system, and providing incentive for poorly-
performing schools to improve.
“The act of publicly rating and ranking
schools attracts attention, and this can pro-
vide motivation,” the report states. “Schools
that perform well or show consistent
improvement are applauded. Poorly per-
forming schools generate concern, as do
those whose performance is deteriorating.
“This inevitable attention provides an
incentive for all those connected with a
school to focus on student results,” the
report says.
The results for all Durham schools can
be accessed on the Fraser Institute’s web-
site, http://ontario.compareschoolrank-
ings.org

Pickering is doing
good work in the
community on
sustainability practices
To the editor:
It’s so great to see municipalities stepping
up to compensate for the lack of leadership
at the federal level.
So much good work can be done at the
local level.
Community energy projects, improved
transit and bike infrastructure, moderniz-
ing buildings and water systems, and pro-
tecting greenspaces are all such important
initiatives that are almost always munici-
pally driven.
To make sure these local projects are
protected and encouraged we do need to
see some kind of federal regulation.
A straightforward price on carbon,
like the fee and dividend approach, will
encourage cities across the country to
take steps towards sustainability.
Hats off to the city of Pickering; let’s
make it easy for everyone to follow their
lead.

New sex-ed curriculum needed in today’s Ontario
The new sex-ed
curriculum released by
the Province last week,
despite the predictably
scripted outcry from
religious groups and
social conservatives,
comes none too soon.
The world has changed immensely since
Ontario last updated its sex education cur-
riculum. It is primarily new technology, of
which today’s youth tend to be early adopt-
ers, that has made more widely and imme-
diately available sexualized imagery, text
and video that they frequently see and
share, often without understanding the
context, implications, or consequences.
It is here that the new curriculum will pro-
vide growing children with knowledge and
information which they can use to navigate
today’s inter-connected social landscape.
For younger children, the new curricu-
lum will introduce concepts and specific
language identifying body parts, with more
detailed information following in succes-
sive elementary school years. A vital com-
ponent of teachings at this age relate to car-
ing behaviours, standing up for oneself and
respect.
As children mature, lessons will become
more detailed around issues of physical
changes during puberty, masturbation and
sexual acts.
It is still difficult to reconcile the argument
among social conservative groups that pro-
viding children in elementary school with
this type of information and education is an
inducement for them to have sex at earlier
and earlier ages.
If history has taught us anything, howev-
er, it is that adolescents are going to explore
their sexuality, alone or with another,
regardless of their level of awareness, edu-
cation, or sexual knowledge. Some explore
sooner, others later, but they do explore.
They will explore.
In that context, wouldn’t the vast majority
of parents want their children to have basic
knowledge and understanding of what is
involved and what is being considered?
Would they not want their son or daugh-
ter to have participated in discussions with
their peers around such issues as mutual
respect and self-respect? Boundaries? Car-
ing behaviours? Consequences?
This would all be moot if, as opponents
argue, parents were to teach their children
these vital life issues at home. Except that
most parents don’t do it adequately and
others not at all. The old curriculum was
outdated and did little to educate children
about today’s realities surrounding sex, sex-
uality, relationships and responsibility.
The new curriculum, though not perfect,
goes a long way to addressing those gaps
and provides today’s youth with more rele-
vant lessons addressing current realities.

ruary I had towels on the windowsills inside my
house because ice was forming on the inside and
when the sun hit, the water melted and puddles
were everywhere. I likely need new windows but
I was also advised the humidifier may be set too
high so it has been lowered, hoping that solves the
issue.
While the experts say you don’t need to let new
vehicles warm up too much on cold mornings, I
couldn’t help but let my car run for five or 10 min-
utes before I headed off for work. Every morning
it sounded as if it was pleading not to move. It
whined and creaked until it was warm and then,
and only then, would it move out slowly, tires mov-
ing over ice and snow which had melded to the
driveway.
And what February would be complete without
a hockey tournament? It’s very rare a tournament
is cancelled because of the weather and this tour-
nament in Marmora was no exception. We have
been to tournaments in Northern Ontario where
the snow was as high as the stop signs and still,
the tournament went on.
Maybe that’s why most hockey parents have
SUVs or large trucks.
So on this cold February morning I pleaded
with my car to start and up Hwy. 115 we went, no
more than 50 km/h as we followed snowplows and
then moved carefully over other sections of snow-
covered highway. Even Hwy. 7 was slow. The first
game was at 10 a.m. and we arrived at the arena
at 9:25 a.m., more than enough time to change
and get onto the ice.
Then the universe sent a message. At about
9:50 a.m., just seconds after the first game of the
tournament finished, the lights went out in the
arena.
In fact, power was out in the whole area. There
isn’t much to do in Marmora without power so we
waited and waited. At noon, the tournament was
cancelled and home we went.
This past February is one I quickly want to for-
get.

Enough
already!
The birds, the bees
and the bull ...
Well, once again, the newly released pro-
vincial sex-ed curriculum is generating
more heat than a tube of Ben-Gay.
And once again, I am left shaking my
head. As far as my research tells me, the
new curriculum is a huge step in the right
direction. It’s providing much-needed
information, dialogue and direction to
both parents and children in an age where
both parties are, thanks in large part to
that electronic Pandora’s Box, the Internet,
swamped with misinformation, miscom-
munication and misdirection.
I’m not sure at what point sexual educa-
tion became misconstrued as sexual per-
mission but the notion that providing our
kids with knowledge about their bodies,
the reproductive process and the com-
plexities of sexual relations will some-
how ignite within them an uncontrollably
libidinous urge is laughable. And it would
be funny, really funny, if it weren’t so dan-
gerous.
I don’t have the stats handy but I think it’s
a safe bet that sexually hip children who
have parents and educators who commu-
nicate openly, honestly and candidly with
them, get into sexual and relationship dif-
ficulties far less than those who are left to
twist in the wind of ignorance, trying to
make sense of an increasingly sexualized
world by surfing the Internet and tweeting
with the popular kids.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but it’s not
exactly easy to be a kid these days. And I
would say it’s doubly difficult to be a girl
kid. Children are hammered with sexu-
al imagery and sexual messages in every-
thing from the music they listen to, to the
television shows they watch, to the bill-
boards along the highway. It is everywhere.
And we do our children a huge disservice
if we set them free to wander through all of
that without arming them with real infor-
mation, real perspective and, most impor-
tantly, the knowledge that they can speak
with us at any time about any thing.
This new curriculum is nothing more
than a very good first step. An invitation, if
you will, for parents, teachers and children
to begin the talk.
Regrettably, most of the kids from my
generation got whatever pitiful sexual edu-
cation we had from the back pages of Pent-
house forum and Playboy. I’m convinced
most of the guys I knew who went to col-
lege only did so on the desperate hope
that one of those ‘dormitory maid’ stories
might actually come true. We were idiots.
Nobody that I knew was talking about
sex in any meaningful or informative way
and most parents just crossed their fingers.
Frankly it’s just dumb luck or perhaps the
grace of God that more of us didn’t wind
up in serious trouble.
So when I hear about people who still
want to repress this kind of much-needed
curriculum, my dander gets up, because
my kids deserve better than a wing and a
prayer. It gets up even further when I see
the Catholic church and the Campaign
Life Coalition wading blindly into the
argument. Yes, by all means, let’s take our
sexual education cues from the folks who
brought us such forward-thinking con-
cepts as residential schools, abstinence, no
condoms for Africa and the condemnation
of homosexuality. How’s that working for
you so far?

BEHIND THE LENS
DURHAM -- Emotions reach a fevered pitch for sports
fans, and when they come together to watch a final, it
is even more intense. This energy is released when the
home team scores. As a photographer, the shot is the
first split second after a goal. But games last for hours
and one does not know when or how many chances
one will get, perhaps just the first and only. Crouching
on the floor, watching and waiting; in a most uncom-
fortable position toward the crowd. Do not dare to get
in between a fan’s view for one will surely be question-
ing that judgment; but the intensity in that split sec-
ond is fantastic.
JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND
Laura Darcy: There needs to be
harsher punishments for animal
abusers, anyone who can hurt an
animal shouldn’t have any rights...
Leaving them out in the cold or hot weather is
abuse.
Joanne Carnovale: Why can’t we
just knock on the door instead of
wasting time and resources? Just
say, I’m sorry to bother you, but I
noticed your pup is outside and it’s really cold
out. That goes a long way.
Malisa Caprio: We need all branch-
es of government together with all
animal groups to make a change.
The city doesn’t harrass or abuse
anyone. They have a job to do and they do it. The
only ones who seem to have a problem with any
law enforcement are the ones who get caught
breaking the laws.
Ashley Anderson: It’s freezing out
there, I watch my two dogs out in the
backyard so when they come back
up to the door I am right there to let
them in. It is way too cold to leave a dog out in
this weather and I completely agree someone
should be called to take action against the people
who leave their animals out to freeze... It’s not
right.
Debbie Grills: The last thing we
need is local government meddling in
this. The city of Oshawa will only use
this as an additional way to harass
and abuse its residents. Any concerns should be
dealt with by the OSPCA.

Pickering neighbours
shocked

charged
with wife’s
murder
Two men arrested
for first-degree murder,
conspiracy, arson

PICKERING -- Residents of a quiet
Pickering neighbourhood were shocked
late last summer when one of their neigh-
bours was murdered.
Saturday, they woke to news that Carme-
la Knight’s husband had been arrested for
the killing.
“We’re relieved,” neighbour Ted Foster,
whose home is across the street from the
Pebblestone Crescent house where Ms.
Knight lived with her family, said Satur-
day morning. “We’ve been looking at that
house since last September. When it first
happened we were going through police
lines, fire lines -- the police were here for
two weeks.”
The body of Ms. Knight, 39, was found
after firefighters extinguished a fire in the
garage of the house, at 1164 Pebblestone,
on Sept. 15. Police soon declared the death
a homicide, saying Ms. Knight was found
with obvious signs of trauma.
Residents of the neighbourhood, in the
Liverpool Road - Finch Avenue area, were
shattered by the death of Ms. Knight, who
was described as a kind and caring mother
of two young boys.
Mr. Foster said Saturday that although he
didn’t know the family well, he has fond
memories of Ms. Knight, who worked as a
mortgage agent.
“When we moved in here Carmela was one
of the first people to come over and say
hello,” he said.
In the five months since Ms. Knight’s
death Durham police revealed little about
the status of their investigation, other than
to issue a call for potential witnesses. Fri-
day they announced that Ms. Knight’s hus-
band, 42-year-old David Knight of Toron-
to, is charged along with another man,
Graham Thomas MacDonald, 28, of no
fixed address, with first-degree murder,
conspiracy to commit murder and arson.
Both men appeared in an Oshawa bail
court by video Friday and were remand-
ed in custody. Another video appearance
is scheduled for March 6.
Mr. Foster said Ms. Knight and her hus-
band were both often seen on the go with
their hockey-playing sons. “The talk was
that David was at hockey with the boys”
the day Ms. Knight died, he said.
The house still stands empty but recent-
ly work has begun to repair the damage
caused by the fire. A dumpster in the drive-
way is filled with debris and fresh plywood
has been nailed onto the garage front,
which for months remained a charred
reminder of last year’s shocking events.
“You’d come out every morning and look
at it and realize, Carmela was in there,” Mr.
Foster said.
Saturday morning Pebblestone resident
Greg Howard paused to look at the house
as he walked his dog. He said the mur-
der continues to reverberate through the
neighbourhood.
“The worst part is that it’s just sad for the
kids,” he said. “They lost their mom, now
their dad.”
Mr. Howard had a passing acquaintance
with Mr. Knight and his family. “They
looked, for all intents and purposes, to be
very affluent -- and we tend to equate that
with happiness,” he said.
“The impact of this has been not just
on the family; it’s neighbours and friends,
too,” Mr. Howard said.
“It’s staggering, the impact this had on
the community.”
PICKERING -- Work has recently begun to repair fire damage to the Pickering house in
which Carmela Knight (inset) died in September 2014. Police have now charged two
men -- David Knight, Ms. Knight’s husband, and Graham Thomas MacDonald -- with
first-degree murder and arson. Jeff Mitchell / Metroland
Pickering home
targeted
by vandals
nine times
Home pelted with
eggs, paintballs, beer
bottles and shot at
with BB gun; police
seek two suspects
caught on camera
PICKERING -- Police are looking for
two men caught on camera who they sus-
pect of hurling beer bottles and shooting
at a Pickering home with a BB gun.
The residents of a home in the Kingston
Road and Valley Farm Road area have
been the victims of vandalism on nine
separate occasions between Sept. 27 and
Dec. 30, 2014.
The vandals began by hitting the home
with eggs and paintballs but escalated
to hurling beer bottles and taking shots
with a BB gun, the latter incident damag-
ing a second-floor window.
Police have released surveillance pho-
tos of an Oct. 23, 2014 incident when two
beer bottles were thrown at the rear win-
dow of the home. Police are looking for
two men and are trying to determine if
the separate incidences of vandalism are
related.
The first suspect was wearing a dark
coat with white sleeves and the number
5 or 6 written on the sleeves, dark pants
and grey shoes.
The second suspect is white with short
brown hair and was wearing dark pants
with a white drawstring, a dark hooded
sweatshirt with a white logo or lettering
on the front.
Anyone with information about the
incident should call Det.-Const. Rose of
the Central East Division Criminal Inves-
tigations Bureau at 1-888-579-1520 ext.
3260.
Anonymous information can be sent
to Durham Regional Crime Stoppers at
1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.
durhamregionalcrimestoppers.ca and
tipsters may be eligible for a $2,000 cash
reward.

Sell your home sooner
with these effortless
landscaping tips
(NC) Curb appeal is essential when selling a house. A well maintained
lawn, for example, proves you care about all the details of your property and
provides onlookers confidence that the house is well preserved.
“A big percentage of home buyers decide whether or not to look inside a
house based on what it looks like from the outside,” says Michelle Sordi at
Husqvarna, a world leader in outdoor power products. “Proper maintenance
and investing in the right tools will make sure your house and lawn looks great
at first glance and demonstrates to potential buyers how much you care for
your home.”
Sordi supplies some additional tips from the pros:
• Great yards begin in the spring, not the summer: Start the
spring-cleaning when the snow has melted and the soil has dried up a bit.
Remove layers of leaves that can lead to the grass moulding or decaying by
using a leaf blower or a rake. However, don’t rake the lawn until it has started
to grow.
• Would you buy it? Walk around your entire home’s exterior with a
critical eye. Take notes on what needs repairing, replacing or cleaning.
• Add colour. Replace overgrown bushes with leafy plants and colourful
annuals. Surround bushes and trees with dark or reddish-brown bark mulch;
this will give a rich feel to the yard. Potted plants are another way to add a
splash of colour and can be taken with you when you move.
• Mow the lawn. Remember not to cut the grass too short. With a grass
level of 5 to 9 cm you will have a fine, sustainable lawn.
• Trim the hedges. The way to get a good-looking hedge always starts
with the right tool. With an ergonomically balanced and lightweight hedge
trimmer, creating clean cuts and a smooth line will be easy.
• Get out of the weeds: Get rid of any weeds as early as possible.
Also be sure to cut away withered leaves and grass from cultivated parts of the
garden bed.
• Shape and edge your lawn. If you want your lawn to look really
great, don’t forget to trim the edges.
• Bright idea. Landscape lighting makes a huge impact on your home’s
curb appeal while also providing safety and security. It isn’t unusual for
potential buyers to drive by homes in the evening and lighting can provide an
attractive view of your house at night.

WHAT IS THE
IMPORTANCE OF
BUILDING A PERSONAL
CREDIT HISTORY?
AA&&QQ
Why your credit history is important
Your credit history is your passport to borrowing.A bad, or nonexistent, credit history can
make it difficult to get a personal loan, mortgage or credit card.
If you’re young or recently arrived in Canada, you should establish a credit history as soon as
possible.Your history begins when you apply for a credit card or loan. If your financial life is
already in full swing,make sure your credit history remains positive.Your history is maintained
by credit-reporting agencies. It’s a record of your credit applications, outstanding loans,
payments patterns and anything else connected with borrowing.Your history is compiled from
information supplied by financial institutions and made available to other lenders.
Your personal history is reflected in a credit “score” or “rating” assigned by agencies.
Consider it the “grade” you’ve received for your borrowing practices.
The more positive your history and score, the easier it is to get loans.A history checkered
with late payments or other problems will lead to difficulties.
The key to maintaining a favorable history is using credit wisely. Borrow responsibly and
make payments on time.

Need a second opinion or a review of your coverage? Give our
office a call.
Often discussion develops with an insurance contract being expected
to pay for maintenance and loss from the lack of security. While
insurance helps, it cannot replace a sense of security nor a feeling
of violation after a break in occurs and family heirlooms are gone.
Prevention is necessary to avoid loss. Insurance will only help with
the monetary loss after the fact. Police reports, the repair process
and settlement negotiations remain the responsibility of the owner.
Consider installing better locks, using bars or wood dowels in sliding
window/door tracks and installing a home alarm system. You could
even initiate or get involved in a NeighbourhoodWatch program.
Personal service makes a difference.

AP Nest egg: Saving for the future in Durham
Younger workers in
Durham saying no to
RRSP contributions
Chris Hall
chall@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- For years, Michael Konopas-
ki never made dinner plans on deadline
day for registered retirement savings plan
contributions.
But now, it’s pretty much just another
day at his Port Perry accounting firm.
“Twenty years ago, when I started, the
last day for RRSPs meant staying till mid-
night, there would be people still lined
up,” said Mr. Konopaski, who operates
Scugog Accounting Professional Corpo-
ration on Queen Street. “Now, there’s no
RRSP season. It’s been a bust for about 10
years.”
It’s a trend that seems to be playing out
across Canada, according to a nation-
al survey carried out by CIBC. The poll,
which questioned 1,505 random Canadi-
ans over four days in January and Febru-
ary, found that 54 per cent of respondents
did not plan on making an RRSP contri-
bution for the 2014 tax year.
Of those polled, 16 per cent said they
had already made their entire contribu-
tion for the tax year while the same num-
ber of people replied that they planned to
make some sort of contribution by March
2, the deadline for 2014 RRSP investments.
Another 14 per cent said they weren’t sure
what they planned to do.
Mr. Konopaski attributes the lack of
RRSP contributions to a “generational
mindset.”
Baby boomers, he said, have always had
two main goals: pay off their mortgage
and save for the future. The next wave, the
so-called Generation X, is a smaller and
not-as-successful group who are mostly
focused on paying their bills and trying
to put children through post-secondary
school, said Mr. Konopaski. Finally, he
continued, millennials seem to like what
they’re doing and don’t really have any
goal to retire.
“It’s a mindset; it’s all about demo-
graphics,” said Mr. Konopaski.
But, he added quickly, it’s also about
money -- in particular, how much one
makes.
Just about everyone at Mr. Konopaski’s
firm who is in the highest tax bracket --
those making more than $135,000 a year
-- invest in RRSP contributions each year.
“That’s a small group,” he said. “And
they’re not just saving for retirement; it’s
also the tax reduction.”
Mr. Konopaski estimates that 10 per cent
or fewer of his clients invest in RRSPs. Of
those clients under 50, he estimates that
less than one-third make a RRSP contri-
butions.
“I think it’s pretty grim,” said Mr. Kono-
paski.
But, stresses Mr. Konopaski, just
because someone isn’t investing in RRSPs
doesn’t mean they’re not saving, point-
ing to the recently created tax-free savings
accounts.
However, he continued, the days of
investing every little bit put into retire-
ment savings does not seem to be a prior-
ity anymore.
In his father’s day, said Mr. Konopaski,
those with an extra $2,500 in their pocket
would never think of spending that on an
extravagant purchase or vacation.
“It’s totally different now,” he said.
“Almost everyone I know, if they had an
extra $2,500, they’d buy anything from
a new (snowmobile) to a plasma TV to a
trip to the Dominican Republic. Invest-
ing in an RRSP is going to be the last thing
they think of.”
Tom Rowett, co-owner of 1st Financial
Centre and Scugog’s mayor, has also seen
interest in RRSP investments disappear.
“The days of doing last-minute RRSP
contributions are less and less. People are
not planning as much as they used to,”
said Mr. Rowett. “The landscape is getting
scarier as we move forward.”
Some people, he said, are waiting to the
last five years before they retire to invest
heavily, which denies them the opportu-
nity of seeing their funds grow through
compound interest.
“I don’t think people realize how much
they’ll need to live off of in retirement
and I think too many people are deferring
until it’s too late in life,” said Mr. Rowett.
Many of his clients are doing month-
ly investments, “but it’s not like it was 10
years ago when there was an RRSP rush.
There’s not that rush anymore.”
At Hazelwood and Rosborough Account-
ing and Taxation Services in Port Perry,
there also seems to be a lack of interest in
RRSP investments, confirms Garett Hazel-
wood.
“I know more people that aren’t (invest-
ing) than are contributing,” said Mr.
Hazelwood, who agrees the CIBC poll
numbers are realistic.
He points to the economy as one reason
why RRSP contributions are slowing.
“There are a lot of people who are strug-
gling between paying what they need to
pay and commitments,” said Mr. Hazel-
wood. “They know they should be (invest-
ing in their retirement), but they’re not.”
TFSAs are also another reason, contin-
ued Mr. Hazelwood. For those who plan
on using money they’ve invested in a few
years, it makes more sense to sock the
funds away in a TFSA, he said.
Essentially, if you invest in RRSPs
and then take the money out, you can-
not reuse that contribution room. With
TFSAs, you retain the contribution room
after you make withdrawals.
Pensions are also getting more scarce,
said Mr. Hazelwood.
There will always be those in public sec-
tor jobs -- teachers and first-responders
-- with pensions, said Mr. Hazelwood, but
“when you look at the numbers, there are
more that don’t have pensions because
the number of self-employed is growing.”
Looking at his client base, which he
dubs a “cross-section of society,” Mr.
Hazelwood sees both sides of the retire-
ment story: Some are planners, others are
hopers.
“Some, I think if I were in their shoes, I’d
be really worried. I wouldn’t know what to
do,” said Mr. Hazelwood.
PORT PERRY -- Michael Konopaski is a char-
tered professional accountant with the Scugog
Accounting Professional Corporation. Mr.
Konopaski has noticed the younger generation
isn't saving money and planning for retirement
the same way as their parents or grandparents
did. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland

Win first two games
of best-of-five against
Ottawa Lady Sens
Brad Kelly
bkelly@durhamregion.com
AJAX -- The fact the Durham West Jr. Light-
ning had a better road record than they did
at home this season bodes well for them in
the second half of their playoff series.
Hosting the opening two games of their
best-of-five set with the Ottawa Lady Sens,
the Lightning were unbeatable, posting
back-to-back shutouts with wins of 1-0 and
4-0. The series now shifts to Ottawa for the
remaining three games, if all are needed.
During the Provincial Women’s Hockey
League regular season, the Lightning had
eight wins on home ice, compared to 11
on the road. They will need one more away
from the Ajax Community Centre to close
this series out.
“We really liked the way we played,” said
head coach Jeremy Murphy of his week-
end impressions. “The first game Saturday
our penalty killing was great. It got us out
of some trouble. I thought on Saturday we
got better each period. The third period we
dominated and finally got that goal.
“Sunday I thought we really played well
from the drop of the puck. It was probably
one of our best games of the season. That
was our fourth game against Ottawa and
we didn’t feel through the first three that
we brought our ‘A’ game. We definitely got
that Sunday.”
Stellar goaltending from Rebecca Clark
has allowed the Lightning to need just one
goal in each game to earn the victory, as
she has been perfect thus far, stopping all
40 shots in posting a pair of shutouts. Her
shutout string actually extends to three
games in a row, having blanked Brampton
3-0 in her last start during the regular sea-
son.
“Goaltending has certainly been a
strength for us all year,” said Murphy of the
tandem of Clark and Tera Hofmann. “With
our record, our team has done well against
the top teams. When we get into those big
games, the goaltenders seem to raise their
level of play.
“We knew whoever we went with this
weekend was going to be solid.”
Offensively, the team’s leading scorer
during the regular season, Alyssa Gee, has
continued that role in the playoffs. She
had both game-winning goals in the open-
ing two games. In the 1-0 win on Saturday,
Feb. 28, she scored midway through the
third period, then opened the scoring in
the first period on the power play in Sun-
day’s 4-0 victory. Murphy said her line,
which includes wingers Dakota Waites and
Emily Jukosky, is expected to carry the load
offensively.
“With all the injuries this year it’s been
hard to have lines gel because we haven’t
had much consistency. We’ve got a bit
healthier. We have a full lineup for the first
time all year and been able to keep some
combinations together,” Murphy added.
Also scoring in the 4-0 win in Game 2
were Maria Dominico, Charlea Pedersen
and Waites.
Because Ottawa finished eighth and the
Lightning ninth, coupled with the geo-
graphic distance between the clubs, Otta-
wa was given the choice as to how the
series would play out. They opted to play
the first two games away, then host games
three through five. Game 3 goes Friday,
Mar. 6 in Ottawa, with games four and five,
if necessary, on Saturday and Sunday.
