Justin Trudeau says he doesn’t ‘believe in formal coalition’ with NDP Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Justin Trudeau threw cold water on the possibility of a Liberal coalition with the New Democratic Party in an effort to defeat Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper at the polls. Speaking at a private home in Ajax Mon- day morning, the Liberal leader said, “I don’t believe in a formal coalition. The Liberal party is always willing to work with the other par- ties.” Mr. Trudeau was in Ajax on Aug. 17 for about an hour to meet with the Ahmad and Vahidy families. Joining Mr. Trudeau was Ajax riding Liberal hopeful Mark Holland. Later in the day, Mr. Trudeau was to be joined at a rally by Ontario Liberal Premier Kathleen Wynne. Mr. Trudeau was asked in a press conference if he was concerned to be linked so closely with Ms. Wynne as she has been dogged by several controversies. “I believe in a co-operative and collabora- tive approach. I’m proud to say I have a good working relationship with many, many pre- miers across the country,” Mr. Trudeau said. “The prime minister has chosen to fight with Premier Wynne. If he had done his job and helped people with their pensions, he wouldn’t have to fight with Premier Wynne.” Mr. Trudeau also announced he would raise taxes on the highest earners to give the middle class a tax break. “We would raise taxes on the one per cent so we can cut them for the middle class. We’d stop giving cheques to millionaires so we can give it to the middle class,” he said. “Nine out of 10 families would be better off in real dollars than under Mr. Harper.” With the Senator Mike Duffy fraud and brib- ery trial ongoing in Ottawa, Mr. Trudeau also took a shot at Mr. Harper, saying, “The prime minister and his senior staff are involved in a coverup. The fact is these are serious ques- tions. It’s important he come clean with Cana- dians.” Mr. Harper’s former chief of staff Neil Wright has been testifying in Ottawa about his role in helping Mr. Duffy pay back $90,000 in ques- tionable expenses. Mr. Harper has said he didn’t know about the arrangements Mr. Wright had made in paying back the money. Mr. Trudeau said, “Mr. Harper has to answer this question.” The prime minister has “promoted and pro- tected these people. It really illustrates Mr. Harper doesn’t have much respect for the office he holds or the intelligence of Canadi- ans. It’s the kind of disrespect we have seen over 10 years of Mr. Harper.” The “integrity of the office” is being compro- mised, Mr. Trudeau added. An essay in the Sunday New York Times by Stephen Marche, called The Closing of the Canadian Mind, criticized Mr. Harper’s tenure as prime minister. When asked about the mat- ter, Mr. Trudeau said, “One of the things that has become very clear is the mismanagement of the government. We need a better govern- ment.” When asked why her family was chosen to meet with Mr. Trudeau, Sobia Ahmad said, “Honestly, they were looking for a middle- class family. We’re two working couples and we represent the middle class.” Her brother Jamad said meeting Mr. Trudeau was “a pretty cool experience, for them to come to the community and speak to us.” He noted his nine-year-old daughter Keha- ra has noticed the attack ads that have been appearing on television. “She knows (the October federal election) is important. She’s seen the ads,” he said. Mr. Trudeau dismissed the Conservative Party ad that claims he’s not ready. “I’m ready for the job. We’ll gather a team around us. I’m not ready to stand by while the middle class struggles. “He’s demonstrated he doesn’t understand Canadians and the struggling middle class. That’s why I’m so excited.” Watch the video story @ durhamregion.com aJaX -- Liberal leader Justin trudeau visited with Sobia ahmad and her daughter Myra Vahidy,1, in ajax while on the campaign trail, aug. 17.

Drivers aid police in stopping drunk drivers Jeff Mitchell jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Police are laying many more impaired driving charges in the GTA this year, and part of the reason may be the public’s willingness to report suspected drunk drivers. “That’s my take on it,” said Sergeant Kerry Schmidt of the OPP’s Highway Safety Division. “I’ve been attributing it to a lot of help from the public, who are calling when they see a suspected drunk driver.” Statistics released by the OPP Wednes- day indicate that in the first seven months of 2015, officers in the GTA issued 1,020 tickets for impaired driving or driving while exceeding the legal limit, a 30 per cent increase over the same period in 2014. At the same time, the overall number of charges for the same offences is down 11 per cent across the province. And alcohol- related road fatalities are down 40 per cent through the first seven months of 2015, with 19 so far this year, compared to 34 for the same period last year. Sgt. Schmidt said it appears OPP are catching up with suspected drunk driv- ers before they’re involved in collisions, something he attributes to increased dili- gence by both cops and civilians. That’s a factor particularly in urban areas like the GTA with its heavily-travelled roads, he said. “If you’re in the GTA on a major highway it’s pretty hard to remain invisible,” Sgt. Schmidt said. Police continue to encourage motor- ists to report suspected drunk drivers. Sgt. Schmidt recommends getting a vehicle description, then pulling over to make the call safely. “If you see an impaired driver, call 911,” he said. “We’ll get in position and find out what’s going on.” Drunk driving charges spike in GTA in 2015: OPP 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 • Au g u s t 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 4 AP GervaisParty&TentRentalsprovides innovativesolutionsfor yourevent.

Crown alleged clients bilked of $650,000 Jeff Mitchell jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- An Ajax investment broker accused of bilking clients in penny stock transactions has been found guilty of fraud over $5,000. A judge announced the verdict in the case of Roger Schoer Aug. 6. Mr. Schoer was found not guilty of assault and uttering a forged document. The charges were laid in 2009 after an investigation by Durham police into complaints made by former clients. The Crown alleged Mr. Schoer encour- aged clients to pursue what he present- ed as potentially lucrative investments in companies that had not begun to be publicly traded. The Crown contended Mr. Schoer was actually running a Ponzi scheme, some- times using funds from new investors to pay off those who wanted to cash out. It’s alleged he defrauded clients of $650,000. Mr. Schoer testified in his own defence, describing himself as a middle man who facilitated transactions between inves- tors who held the stocks and clients who wanted in on the high-risk ventures. A sentencing hearing is scheduled for late October.

On Sunday, Aug. 16 at around 5:45 a.m., Dur- ham police officers responded to the Mac’s Con- venience store on Church Street after a masked male, who was allegedly brandishing a handgun, demanded cash from the lone employee, police say. As the suspect fled the store with a quantity of cash, an officer spotted him and chased him on foot. The suspect was arrested and a replica handgun was recovered. The victim was not physically injured during the robbery. Investigators from the Major Crime Robbery Unit were called in to assist and have further charged the suspect with eight more robberies in Burlington, Brampton, Milton, Vaughan, and Toronto, where convenience stores and gas bars were robbed at gunpoint. Naji Dawood, 22, of Kipling Avenue in Etobi- coke, is charged with nine counts each of: rob- bery with a weapon, disguise with intent, posses- sion of dangerous weapons, and using an imita- tion firearm. He was held for a bail hearing. Anyone with information about this investiga- tion is asked to call Det. Connolly of Major Crime Robbery Unit at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 5361. Mother and kids hurt in fail-to-remain crash BROCK -- An eight-year-old girl and several other people suffered serious injuries in a fail- to-remain collision in Brock Township on holi- day Monday. The incident happened at about 4 p.m. on Aug. 3 at Regional Road 23 and Regional Road 12. Police said a northbound Kia SUV driven by a 40-year-old Uxbridge woman was approach- ing Regional Road 12 when a westbound Chrysler 300 vehicle entered the roadway. The Kia swerved to avoid the Chrysler and went into the southbound lanes, hitting a BMW vehicle driven by a 51-year-old Toronto woman. The Chrysler stopped -- avoiding a colli- sion with the Kia -- but after the Kia and BMW collided, the Chrysler continued westbound towards Pefferlaw. The driver of the Kia and her 10-year-old son and eight-year-old daughter, were all trans- ported to Uxbridge Cottage Hospital. The girl was later flown to SickKids by ORNGE Air Ambulance, where she remains in serious but stable condition. The driver of the BMW and her passengers, a 22-year old-man and a 22-year-old woman, were all transported to Southlake Hospital in Newmarket with serious injuries. Police are asking the male driver of the Chrysler to contact them. Anyone who may have seen the blue Chrysler 300 in the Pefferlaw area just after 4 p.m. or who wit- nessed the collision is asked to call 905-579-1520 ext. 5226 .

Really? I am not a parent and have no children living in my home. I do have several niec- es and nephews with whom I spent a lot of time while they were children, and even now that they’re adults. Children play. Children make noise, par- ticularly when they are happy and having fun. If those children were being noisy at 11 p.m., I’d wonder about the parent, but play- ing in their own backyard in the summer- time, in the evening. Really? Marva A. Palmer, Pickering PICKERING -- Kids playing in their pool prompted a neighbour complaint recently. The end of my child’s innocence Oshawa-born Desmond Cole wrote an article in Toronto Life magazine recently that reignited a long-simmering conversation in the GTA about carding. For those of you who might be unaware, card- ing is the troubling police practice of stopping indi- viduals and demanding identification. The cover, emblazoned with Mr. Cole’s face, said it all: “I’ve been stopped by cops on the street 50 times. I’m not a criminal – A memoir about being black in Toronto.” The article did what good journalism is sup- posed to do: it moved those who normally might not take notice to call on political leaders to take real action. Then, after defending the necessity of carding for months, Toronto Mayor John Tory reversed his support and announced that he would push the Police Services Board to end the practice. It was, ironically, the same day that my hus- band and I had The Talk with our son. Not the one about the birds and the bees but the one about what he should do if he is stopped by a police officer. Of course, we kept the conversations age- appropriate: keep your hands out of your pockets. Answer every question politely. Do not, under any circumstances, talk back. We also told him the reality as we believe it: that not every police officer is out to get him. But there are, unfortunately, some officers who do not follow the rules and, at the end of the day, that officer could be dead wrong. But when you are stopped by an officer like that, you do not have the power in that situation. Period. Your power comes after the situation is over. As a parent, you sometimes have to be a myth-killer. You can find yourself inadvertently and unexpectedly having to chip away at their innocence. But The Talk went far beyond telling my son the truth about Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy. I hope my kids will never have to tell theirs that the problem isn’t with how they look, how they wear their clothes, or what kind of music they like. Because I did. And it was heartbreaking. -- A. Laura Francis is a freelance writer living in Prince Albert. A. Laura Francis Guest column Real World On the path to a smoke-free Durham New provincial rules that restrict smoking in public areas will continue to clear the air for the majority of Durham citizens who don’t use tobacco products. Smoke-Free Ontario Act regulations that came into effect on Jan. 1 of this year pro- hibit the sale of tobacco on college and uni- versity campuses, and outlaw smoking near children’s playgrounds and public sports fields, and on bar and restaurant patios. The expansion of smoke-free areas in Ontario have been introduced incremen- tally over the years. These latest smoking restrictions, then, should come as no sur- prise. Indeed, Durham Region’s own statis- tics show that citizens continue to support such restrictions. According to Durham health data, fully 89 per cent of residents support smoke-free public playgrounds, 84 per cent are in favour of smoke-free public playing fields and spectator areas, and 78 per cent support smoke-free beaches. Sci- entific data compiled over many years and through countless research studies about the negative effects of smoking and second- hand smoke continue to support such bans. Furthermore, fully 70 per cent of smokers in Durham told the Region’s health depart- ment in a recent survey that they are con- sidering or planning on quitting tobacco in the next six months. It’s true that tavern and restaurant own- ers in Durham have felt the pinch of the updated ban -- patio smoking restrictions have resulted in fewer patrons enjoying a pint and a cigarette -- but much like the ini- tial smoking ban that prohibited smoking inside bars and restaurants and which had a temporarily negative effect on revenues in 2006, this is likely to pass. The fact is that smoking represents a health hazard to any- one who partakes in it, or who is in close proximity to it. Yes, tobacco is a legal prod- uct that continues to be sold across Cana- da, but that doesn’t preclude governments -- municipal, provincial or national -- from working to ensure the safety of all citizens. Such bans help promote healthier environ- ments, which promote healthier lifestyles. To their credit, smokers have been co- operative about the bans, if not apologet- ic about their habit, according to several accounts. That’s a positive sign as govern- ments help nudge citizens towards smoke- free lifestyles, even as those most affected by these bans continue to show support for them. If the goal is an entirely smoke-free Dur- ham, we’re not there yet. But we are clear- ly on the right path, with support from all sides. It’s a worthy goal and one we as a society should seek to achieve. Enjoying the sweetest of sweet spots in this life Having children is sort of like the first time you put a pack of Mentos into a litre bottle of Coke. There’s really nothing that can prepare you for what’s about to hap- pen. And it will get messy. Very messy. But it’s also enormously fun and terrifi- cally exciting at the same time. I’ve always said that my life before chil- dren felt like it was lived in black and white and when the kids came along sud- denly everything was in vivid technicol- or. I am certain there are many childless people out there living wonderfully fulfill- ing lives, but, for me personally, I never felt like I was firing on all cylinders until those babies came along. I never knew I could love something as much as that. I never realized how one little smiling face above the crib railing at five in the morn- ing could make my world so absolutely perfect. They do that to you. Unfortunately, as Wayne Newton laid out in his third law of motion, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The more of your heart you give to your children the bigger the hole when they leave. Modern medicine can do won- ders but no one has yet conceived of a procedure to mend the broken ticker of a fresh empty nester. There are, of course, salves and pallia- tive measures along the way. It’s thrilling and inspiring to watch your kids go out on their own, blaze their own trails, learn from their own mistakes and revel in their own victories. And there is great comfort in knowing that perhaps you had a small hand in producing such fine people. The windfall from saved grocery money is also an unlooked-for bonus, although if you miss your kids as much as I do, most of that will be just as quickly be invested in the LCBO. The grim reality is that wound never fully closes. As long as you are present in this world you are a parent to your chil- dren. The surgeon’s scissors may have cut the cord attaching them, physically, to us at birth, but no blade is honed sharp enough to sever the spiritual umbilicus that joins us for life. And that is exactly as it should be. Can you think of a greater gift in this world than the gift of knowing that no matter what you do, where you go or how- ever much you may cock-up your life, there are two people who will always and forever love you unconditionally? That’s powerful stuff. And if you are really, really lucky you may find yourself, as I do, in what is per- haps the sweetest of sweet spots in this life. I have two beautiful young sons who, although well out and on their way in this world, still make my day on a regular basis by reaching out and telling me how much they love me and I am likewise blessed to have two wonderful parents who do the same. I am generationally loved, if you will. And the perfection of that blows my mind. The only job I have is to love them all back, as hard as I can. And that’s some- thing I could happily work a lifetime at. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m 7 APThe Toronto Blue Jays have been on a tear since acquiring top new talent including Tulowitzki and Price.

It gave me the opportunity to shoot some high-calibre sports. After photo- graphing typical shots I noticed the shad- ow on the ground and tried to get a differ- ent photo. I shot quite a few frames while team Canada’s Sara Groenewegen pitched during women’s softball action against Cuba, and finally got one that I was satis- fied with. Shot at f/3.5, 1/4000 sec, 300mm.

Special Ceremony Celebrating the Reign of Queen Elizabeth ıı Celebrating 20 Years Celebrating 20 Years 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 • Au g u s t 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 10 AP This is the first summer in Durham of the Smoke-Free Ontario Act, which came into effect in January Jennifer O’Meara jomeara@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- New rules on where smok- ers can light up are having positive and negative impacts on Durham Region this summer. On one hand, tougher smoking restric- tions have pushed an unhealthy habit farther back from kids playing on sports teams and have given volunteers running the teams a way to get parents to butt out. But a different part of the same leg- islation is hurting business on Durham restaurant patios, where patrons can no longer enjoy a pint and a cigarette. New Smoke-Free Ontario Act regula- tions came into effect on Jan. 1. It is now illegal to smoke on bar and restaurant patios, sell tobacco on college and uni- versity campuses, or to smoke near chil- dren’s playgrounds and public sports fields. For many Durham Region restaurants, this is the first summer that their pati- os have been smoke-free. Some restau- rateurs said their business has suffered from the new ban. “Business is a little down on the patio. People like to smoke on the patio,” said Logan Fatku, owner of the Courtyard Restaurant in Courtice. The Courtyard has a large patio and the smoking ban has impacted the num- ber of people using it. However Mr. Fatku said his patrons have been very under- standing about having to butt out. Saj Pathmana is the manager of the Portly Piper Pub in Ajax, which has a much smaller patio and so wasn’t as financially impacted. He said his patio has no-smoking signs “everywhere” but some people still need a reminder. “One positive thing about (the ban) is we have more families sitting outside because there’s no smoking there now,” said Mr. Pathmana. There is an exemption to allow smok- ing on uncovered patios established by the Royal Canadian Legion. A recent health department survey found that 15 per cent of Durham-area residents are current smokers, repre- senting about 75,000 people locally. The health department survey also found that of the 75,000 local residents, 70 per cent indicate that they are considering or planning on quitting smoking within the next six months. “For individuals trying to quit smoking or those who have recently quit, smoke- free areas can provide support by help- ing to reduce the triggers that might lead to smoking,” Shelley Simic, a public health nurse with the health department, said in a press release. “The benefits of smoke-free areas can also assist in social- ly de-normalizing tobacco use and thus, help to prevent youth from starting to use tobacco products. Smoke-free patios, playgrounds and sports fields encourage a healthy, smoke-free and active lifestyle, provide positive role models for youth and can help to protect residents from harmful second-hand smoke.” Reg LeDuc is the president of the Neighbourhood Association Soccer Club in Oshawa. He said the new bylaw restrictions have only reinforced what the soccer club has always done -- ban- ning smoking on the sidelines of the fields it rents. Parents have to take a walk if they want a cigarette. “The problem we had (before) is it’s volunteers that had to enforce it. Now that we have the bylaw we have people we can call,” said Mr. LeDuc. He said there has been very little push- back to the restriction. Often parents are the ones to pressure other parents to butt out at the games. “You’re doing something healthy with kids and you counter it by smoking,” said Mr. LeDuc. At the start of the soccer season, par- ents are asked to sign a code of conduct with the NASC. If they have to, refs will talk to parents about their smoking or other problematic behaviours. If prob- lems escalate, a bylaw officer can be called on a defiantly-smoking parent -- who can be banned by the association from the future soccer games. But that hasn’t been necessary, yet. “It’s been a non-issue. We did discuss it at the executive table. The refs know to watch out for it,” said Mr. LeDuc. If you smoke or hold lighted tobacco in a place where it has been banned, you may be ticketed and charged a fine of $250. Bylaw officers from each municipality in the region would be the ones to most often issue tickets for the new smoking ban. Durham Regional Police Service has issued 15 provincial offence notic- es since Jan. 1 related to the Provincial Smoke Free Ontario Act. However, this is only a snapshot of the infractions in Dur- ham Region as DRPS would not be the front-line responders to the legislation, explained Jodi McLean from Durham police service. The province’s Smoke-Free Ontario Strategy has been gradually restricting where smokers can light up. The pro- gram uses policies, laws and public edu- cation to try to reduce tobacco use and lower the health risks to non-smokers. Ontario’s smoking rate dropped from 24.5 per cent in 2000 to 18.1 per cent in 2013, meaning 332,361 fewer smokers, according to the provincial government. Tobacco is still responsible for more than 37,000 deaths each year in Canada, according to Cancer Care Ontario. “Tobacco use remains the No. 1 pre- ventable cause of death and disease in Canada,” Dr. Robert Kyle, Durham Region medical officer of health, said in a press release. “Strategies to prevent youth from starting to use tobacco prod- ucts are a public health priority.” HOW THIS IMPACTS YOU Death and taxes Each year, tobacco claims 13,000 lives in Ontario. That means 36 people die from smoking every day. Tobacco-related disease costs Ontario taxpayers. The health-care system spends an estimated $2.2 billion in direct health- care costs. It also costs the economy an extra $5.3 billion in indirect costs such as time off work.

Durham cop Glen Turpin, charged with assaulting civilians, faces dismissal Ruling in disciplinary tribunal expected next month Jeff Mitchell jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- A hearing officer is scheduled to rule next month in the disciplinary tri- bunal of a Durham police officer found to have used excessive force against a person in custody. A prosecutor has called for the dismiss- al of Glen Turpin, an officer whose his- tory has included two criminal trials for assaults against members of the public. Const. Turpin, who was charged with dis- creditable conduct under the Police Ser- vices Act, is fighting termination. He’s been on paid leave since being suspended sev- eral years ago. Charged with assaulting prisoners on two separate occasions -- in 2006 and 2007 -- he was acquitted by a jury at one trial and convicted in a judge-alone trial on another charge. But the Court of Appeal overturned that conviction and ordered a new trial. Const. Turpin eventually pleaded guilty to threatening and was granted a discharge. The officer has a disciplinary history; he’s been cited for failing to perform court- related duties, and in 1998 was found to have used excessive force in the perfor- mance of his duties. Const. Turpin has also received com- mendations over the years for acts that included talking a distraught man into sur- rendering the shotgun he was wielding during a domestic incident; helping save the life of a person who had attempted sui- cide, and fatally shooting a man who had repeatedly ignored orders to drop a knife he held to the throat of a woman during a tense stand-off in Whitby. He was named Officer of the Year in 2002 and received an award of merit from the Canadian Police Association in 2006; he’s also been recognized for volunteerism, which has included travelling to sites of natural disasters around the world to assist in aid efforts. Prosecutor Ian Johnstone, who argued for the officer’s dismissal during a hearing this week, couldn’t be reached for com- ment. Judgment in the case is “tentatively” scheduled for Sept. 23, Durham police said.

While most LCBOs are only allowed to offer six-packs or single beers, Ontario launched a new pilot program, enabling beer to be sold in 12-packs at 10 LCBO stores across the province. The pilot pro- gram includes the Bowmanville LCBO on Hwy. 2 and the Uxbridge LCBO store at Hwy. 47 and Brock Road North. “This is responding to Ontarians demand for more convenience and choice,” said Joe Dickson, Ajax-Pickering MPP at the Bowmanville LCBO 12-pack launch. “We are also keeping an eye on the social responsibility.” The pilot will run for 12 months and will offer 12-packs from 11 local and interna- tional brewers. Bottled domestic beers will include Coors Light, Molson Canadi- an, Carling Lager and Budweiser. Labatt Blue will be available in cans. Imports will include Heineken, Stella Artois, Corona Extra and Grolsch. For customers want- ing 12-packs of craft beers there will be Steam Whistle and the Muskoka Survival Pack. “We are excited about this pilot project. It’s convenience for our customers,” said Michael Thornington, district manager for the LCBO. The results of the pilot program will go through an independent evaluation to decide if it was successful. If it’s deemed a success, the initiative could be expanded to more stores. “We’re taking the time to make these big changes the right way,” said Mr. Dickson. The Ontario government is considering implementing some of the biggest chang- es to how alcohol is sold in Ontario since the end of prohibition. The modernization plans include level- ling the playing field for beer retailing in Ontario and introducing beer sales in up to 450 grocery stores across the province. The other eight LCBO locations partic- ipating in the pilot program are in Sud- bury, North York, Tecumseh, Ottawa, Burlington, Brampton, Kitchener and Woodbridge. The stores chosen had to be at least two kilometres away from the nearest Beer Store location. Mr. Thornington said the pilot stores offer a range of sizes and formats that will help evaluate whether larger beer case sales would be successful in the LCBOs. “It was a real easy transition for the store (to stock 12-packs). It’s got to be cost effective as well,” said Mr. Thorning- ton. “We’ll evaluate (after the year) and see how it does.” Prior to this program, some small LCBO “combo” stores, in communities without a Beer Store, were the only locations able to carry cases of beer. BOWMANVILLE -- The LCBO in Bowmanville is part of the 12-pack pilot project recently announced by the provincial government. Packs of 12 beers will be made available at only 10 LCBO locations across the province.

The Canadian flag draped over the shoul- ders of the Pickering runner was the perfect complement to his running shorts and sin- glet, fitting for a gold-medal champion at the Parapan Am Games. A strong finishing kick over the final 200m propelled Chase into the lead of the T38 1500m final, resulting in a gold medal at the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletics Stadi- um at York University on Wednesday, Aug. 12. Shortly after winning he embraced family, friends and supporters at the track, coming away with a Canadian flag to celebrate his accomplishments. It was a moment he envi- sioned, but never had the chance to enjoy at a prestigious international event like the Parapan Am Games. “I never thought it would happen. I’ve always come second or third in a race,” said the 18 year old just minutes after his victory. “I’ve never been on an international stage where I’ve been able to go over and grab my amazing flag. “To do that, it’s something really special.” Born with cerebral palsy that affects his right leg, Chase has never let it interfere with his athletic endeavours. Without hesitation he rhymes off track, cross-country, swim- ming, hockey and soccer as just a few of the sports he has competed in. It doesn’t limit him, and it certainly wasn’t going to stand in the way of earning a gold medal at one of the biggest competitions of his career to date. “You can’t let your disability stop you,” he said with confidence and conviction. “It’s something you are going to have all your life. You have to make the most of it and live.” In the 1500m final, the Dunbarton High School student had a plan and executed it to perfection. For much of the race he was comfort- ably tucked into second place behind pre- race favourite Austin Handley of the Unit- ed States, who set the early pace. Colombi- an Valencia Medina shot into the lead from third on the bell lap, but with just under 200m to go, Chase kicked it into anoth- er gear, raced past both the American and Colombian, crossing the line in first in a time of 4:34.68. Handley was second in 4:36.57 and Medina third in 4:38.13. Chase was beaming with pride during his post-race interviews. “It feels amazing. All the hard work that I’ve put in over the year. All the training. It’s all worth it once you finally win on the inter- national stage,” he said. A strong wind slowed the race slightly, said Chase, but his time was good enough to set a new Americas record. “With all the wind today, I knew it wouldn’t be the fastest time, so I decided I was just going to stick behind the first-ranked Amer- ican and wait until the end to out-kick him. That paid off really well,” he said of the game plan. Running so close to home in front of fam- ily and friends was something he cherished, noting that he could feel the extra support from those in attendance through their cheers and words of encouragement. “For the first lap when I heard all of their cheering, I kind of used it to my advantage,” he said. “I was really calm. I’ve been in big races before, but nothing like this. I knew I would have to come out here and do what I had to do to win.” Next on the racing docket is the world championships in October in Qatar, with a long-term goal of representing Canada at the 2016 Paralympics in Rio. Matt Gilbert and Canadian teammates fall 2-1 to Venezuela Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX — Losing in the bronze-medal game of the men’s 7-a-side soccer at the Parapan Am Games had a double whammy for Matt Gilbert. First, the disappointment of not gracing the medal podium at the Pan Am/Para- pan Am Fields at the University of Toronto in front of family and friends on home soil was difficult enough. Secondly, as some members of the team contemplate their future with the Canadian squad, comes the realization of not meeting an objective and sending them off in style. A 2-1 loss to Venezuela on Saturday, Aug. 15 left Canada just outside the medals, fin- ishing fourth in the five-team tournament. “It’s disappointing, especially when a couple of players are thinking about mov- ing on. It’s tough when you have to dedi- cate your time to the program and it impacts work life and personal life,” said the Ajax resident. “It’s a little disappoint- ing when it’s the last tournament and we could go forward and we had the chance to medal and we couldn’t do it for them.” Venezuela scored once in the opening half and added another early in the second to open a 2-0 lead. Canada’s Sam Char- ron scored late in the game to give Canada some hope, but the game ended 2-1. “Honestly it could have gone either way,” said Gilbert of how the game unfolded. “I feel like we could have won if we just pressed a little harder.” He cited the loss of Trevor Stiles to a knee injury earlier in the tournament in a round- robin game against the Unites States as having a huge impact on the Canadian team. Stiles could have been a difference maker in the bronze-medal game, added Gilbert. “We did what we could with the play- ers we had. Unfortunately it just wasn’t enough,” said the 23 year old. Canada earned a spot in the bronze- medal game after going 1-2-1 in the round robin. The win came against the United States, 2-1, while the losses were at the TORONTO -- Mitchell Chase, from Pickering, won a gold medal in the men’s T38 1500m race at the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletics Stadium.

Graves, who was traded for a 15th-round selection and a conditional fifth-round pick in the 2017 Ontario Hockey League draft, is the brother of former Gens forward Josh Graves. “Jacob Graves is a big right-handed defenceman, he plays with an element of toughness and reliability,” said Oshawa Gen- erals GM Roger Hunt in a press release. A six-foot-two, 194-pound Barrie native, Graves had seven points, all assists, in 62 games with Kingston last season. He will help fill out a blue-line that has lost Josh Brown, Chris Carlisle and Dakota Mer- mis to graduation and Will Petschenig since the Generals won the Memorial Cup. It’s been a busy off-season for Hunt and the Generals, who have hired a new head coach, Bob Jones, to replace the departed D.J. Smith, added an assistant coach, Greg Nemisz, restructured the front office, traded Petschenig and Bradley Latour, signed draft picks Jack Studnicka, Kyle MacLean and Jalen Smereck, and selected Lukas Lofquist and Misha Moor in the import draft. The team is likely to lose several other key players from the championship team, including forwards Cole Cassels, Tobias Lindberg, Matt Mistele, Hunter Smith and Michael McCarron. The Generals will begin training camp in early September prior to a five-game exhibition schedule including games in Bowmanville Sept. 8 against the Niagara Ice- Dogs and Sept. 19 in Ajax against the Hamil- ton Bulldogs. The Generals have a busy start to the reg- ular season, playing in Guelph Sept. 25 and Hamilton Sept. 26 before hosting the North Bay Battalion Sunday, Sept. 27 at the General Motors Centre. 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 • Au g u s t 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 20 AP CURRENT NISSAN OWNERS QUALIFY FOR UP TO AN ADDITIONAL $1,000††LOYALTY CASH ON SELECT MODELS VISIT CHOOSENISSAN.CA OR YOUR LOCAL RETAILER •ENDS AUGUST 31ST THE FASTEST GROWING AUTOMOTIVE BRAND IN CANADA Based on full-line brands, on 12 month, year over year rolling unit sales REVVEDTO M O V E The r e m a i n i n g 2 0 1 5 N i s s a n s a r e g o i n g f a s t . $8 ,500GET UP TO CASH DISCOUNTS ON SELECT 2015 MODELS $8,500 AVAILABLE ONSELECT 2015 ARMADAS * 2015 NISSAN JUKE®2015 NISSAN MICRA® 2015 NISSAN ARMADA 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA 2015 NISSAN SENTRA 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER2015 NISSAN ROGUE 5102 NSASIN NSASIN 5102 NSASIN 5102 5102 NSASIN 5102 5102 NSASIN OffersvalidAugust1–31,2015.*Cashdiscountis$2,500//$5,604//$3,733//$3,000//$5,000//$2,500//$8,500availableon2015Micra(1.6SRTrims)//AltimaSedan2.5(T4LG15AA00)//Sentra1.8SM6(C4LG55AA00)//Rogue(exceptSFWD(Y6RG15AA00))//PathfinderPlatinum 4x4 (5XEG15 AA00/AA10)//Juke (except Nismo RS AWD (N5YT15 AE00)//Armada Platinum models (7CTG75 AA10/CC10/CR10).

AJAX NISSAN 500 BAYLY STREET WEST,AJAX TEL: (905) 686-0555 hands of Brazil, 8-0, and Argentina, 3-1, with the tie coming against Venezuela, 1-1. Brazil, which won all four round-rob- in games and outscored the opposition 28-0, beat Argentina 3-1 in the gold-medal game. Up for grabs at the Parapan Am Games was an automatic berth in the 2016 Para- lympic Games in Rio for the gold-medal winner, which Brazil earned. It was Cana- da’s last chance to qualify for the Rio Games after finishing 10th at the world champion- ships in England in June, with the top eight gaining a spot in the Paralympics. “It’s unfortunate that we’ve missed the mark over the last few years with just miss- ing our shot for Rio for 2016,” said Gilbert, who has been a member of the national team since 2012. “It’s tough when you have these opportunities and miss it by just a lit- tle bit. We knew coming into this tourna- ment it would be a tough challenge to get gold. It’s tough when you want to get to Rio but it’s a step mountain to climb.” On the upside, Gilbert, who was born with cerebral palsy that affects his right arm, enjoyed his experience at the Games, and the opportunity to play so close to home. His playing time was limited to just the one game against Brazil. “It’s nice to actually play close to home. I know the area. I come to Toronto often. It’s nice to know that friends and family can come down and watch and enjoy and check out what it’s all about, see me play and support the team,” he said. Growing up and playing in the Ajax and Whitby minor soccer systems, the Pickering High School graduate has com- pleted a two-year business management program at Durham College, and is in the final year of communications at UOIT. Despite his busy schedule, if the national program will have him back, he intends to return. “I think the program can move forward,” he said of the future, noting a number of young players are on the cusp of making the team. “The team has a future. If the program feels I’m good enough to stay with it, you might see my name in the lineup.” From page 18 Canada loses bronze 2-1 to Venezuela MATT GILBERT 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 • Au g u s t 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 21 AP Call: 1-866-496-4031 Visit: triOSdurham.com Campus: 200 John St. W.
