When he noticed they seemed more focused on casual ‘hookups’ rather than fulfilling relationships, he saw an opportu- nity and chose to take matters into his own hands. He started to work on his own cre- ation for the dating world, Suited - Dating App. “It focuses on helping people build rela- tionships based on common interests and hobbies,” said Mr. Wright, 21. The goal of the location-based app is to help people find meaningful relation- ships. “We make that happen by marketing a brand that focuses on spreading love,” he said. Mr. Wright was a fourth-year kinesiology student at the University of Windsor when he came up with the idea, and decided to take time off to grow his company. He hired a software developer to turn his vision into a reality. “From February to September, it took them to develop it,” he said. Suited had about 1,500 users at the time of the interview, and it was just launched in September. “By 2017 our plan is to have 300,000 peo- ple on it,” Mr. Wright said. He hopes to eventually grow Suited into a large company with more than one mil- lion users. Mr. Wright said some of his friends have had some luck finding matches on the app already. The app allows users to choose from a list of interests and hobbies to add to their profile, which can be viewed by others. Potential matches are then displayed for the user to decide whether they think they would be suited for a relationship with them. If two users select ‘suited’ for each other, they will both be notified and given the ability to chat within the app. Suited is free to download at the Apple App Store and Google Play. For an upgrade, it’s a one-time payment of $3.99. The upgrade allows users to upload up to 10 photos, view when others have read their messages and make in-app calls. This allows users to speak without having to give out their personal information. Looking for more than a casual date? Pickering man’s got an app for that it focuses on helping people build relationships based on common interests and hobbies. -- andre Wright, Pickering resident Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland PICKERING -- Andre Wright is a 21-year-old Pickering resident who has created a dating app called Suited. ‘‘ 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 • No v e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 5 4 P Auto service speciAl BrocK roAD AND 401 picKeriNG 905-686-2309 SERVICE CENTER HOURS MON.-FRI. 7:30AM-8:00PM SAT. 7:30-6:00 • SUN. 9:00-6:00 Expires Nov. 20 th, 2015. *Plus Environmental Waste disposal WINTER-READY OIL CHANGE PKG PLUS WHEEL ALIGNMENT CHECK WINTER TIRE CHANGEOVER (Mounted rims and tires assemblies) Includes up to 5 liters Castrol GTX Motor Oil Motomaster oil filter, Fluid top ups, check tires, belts, hoses, lights and horn.

The motion asks the Province to provide all non-confidential data and studies used in considering changes to Ontario’s off- site nuclear emergency plans. It also asks the Province to consider the feasibility of expanding the 10-kilometre primary zone. Durham Nuclear Awareness is applauding the motion, passed at the Regional council meeting on Nov. 4. “We’ve been very frustrated by the provin- cial government’s secrecy and foot-dragging since Fukushima,” said Whitby resident and DNA member Gail Cockburn. “We applaud Durham Region for reminding the Prov- ince that it needs to consult openly with the communities most affected in the event of an accident at Darlington or Pickering.” The motion was originally put forward in June by Pickering’s Jennifer O’Connell, who has since been elected MP for Pickering- Uxbridge, and seconded by Ajax Councillor Colleen Jordan. During last week’s Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission hearings surround- ing Ontario Power Generation’s applica- tion to rebuild the Darlington nuclear sta- tion, a CNSC commissioner said 80 per cent of submissions from members of the pub- lic voiced concerns about the inadequacy of provincial emergency plans. CNSC staff also said it would hold its own consultations on off-site nuclear emergency plans if the Province refused to act, according to a DNA press release. “The CNSC, Durham Region and DNA all agree,” said DNA co-ordinator Janet McNeill. “It’s been almost five years since the Fukushima disaster began, and an upgrade to Ontario’s off-site emergency plans is long overdue. Kathleen Wynne’s government needs to publicly and mean- ingfully consult the public on improving off- site nuclear emergency plans.” Last month, everyone within the 10-kilo- metre zones of the Pickering and Darlington nuclear stations received potassium iodide (KI) pills. The CNSC imposed the new safety requirement on OPG in 2014. DNA has been calling for KI pre-distribu- tion since at least 1997, when it specifically asked for the emergency evacuation zones to be expanded from 10 kilometres to 30 kilometres, and for KI to be pre-distributed to everyone within the 30-kilometre zone.

We work hard, support our families and friends and give back to our communi- ties. We’re what are called “good people”. But let there be no doubt, there are those who live among us who are not good. There are people who lie, cheat and scam, preying upon the good natures of others. Most recently Durham seniors were targeted in what Durham Police called a tax scam. Last week police took 71 reports from residents who’d received calls from someone claiming to represent the Can- ada Revenue Agency, and demanding immediate payment of tax arrears. The calls were accompanied by threats of arrest or legal action, and instructions to forward various forms of payment including pre-paid credit cards, money orders or electronic money transfers. The Canada Revenue Agency does not accept payment via pre-paid credit card or wire transfer, nor does it send e-mails requesting personal information, police said. This scam is nothing new; it’s been perpetrated on the public before. The thieves who make these calls reach out and frighten a lot of people in the hopes that just one person gives in to their demands. If this happens to you hang up, save yourself a lot of hardship and save your hard-earned money from falling into somebody else’s hands. This latest scam is just one of a few that has been attempted on seniors in Durham Region. The others include: Prize scam - Seniors are solicited over the phone or email and advised they are the winner of a large lottery or sweepstakes. Prior to receiving any winnings, the con- sumer must first pay an upfront fee. No winnings are ever received. The emergency scam - Scammers use social media, the Internet and newspapers to target potential senior victims. A call is received claiming to be a family member or a close friend advising about an urgent situation that requires immediate funds. Romance scam - There is a growing num- ber of seniors who are turning to the Inter- net to find love. Unfortunately scammers know this and use every type of dating or social networking site to seek out potential victims. Anyone who loses money through a phone scam is advised to call Durham police at 905-579-1520.

A recently released Forum Poll shows his approval rate is higher than on elec- tion day, sitting at 60 per cent, up 11 points since he got elected, and 72 per cent of respondents say they are satisfied with the outcome of the election. The political reality, of course, is that when you’re at the top the only place to go is down. Going forward, it will be impossible to satisfy everybody. When asked by pollsters what piece of legislation they would like to see repealed first, respondents selected Bill C-51, the anti-terrorism bill that has raised the ire of people concerned it’s a major violation of personal privacy and could be used to target political activists. Remember, the Liberals voted to approve Bill C-51 but then promised to overhaul and it looks like that might be one of the first items on the agenda. The question, of course, is whether that can be done in a fashion that satis- fies those who are deeply critical of the bill and those who ardently support it, or whether any changes leave both sides unsatisfied. A local example, which does not seem to the be on the federal radar at this point, is the fate of a proposed Pickering airport. The Conservatives tried to push the issue along at one point, saying they’d like to see shovels in the ground by 2017. Clearly that will not happen regardless of whether the Liberals choose to support the issue. Last year, at an Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade event, Mr. Trudeau was asked about the airport but did not take a posi- tion on whether it should be built. Instead, he spoke about the decision- making process and the importance of “social licence” for major infrastructure projects, meaning the public should be part of the decision-making process on whether a major infrastructure project goes forward. The problem is that on a polarizing issue there will be no public consensus. There are people in Durham who believe a Pickering airport is the best possible economic driver for the region. There are people who believe it will be a white elephant and environmental disaster. One way to deal with the issue is to ignore it but given increasing growth pressures at Toronto’s Pearson airport, it’s unlikely that tactic will be viable for the entirety of Mr. Trudeau’s term. So on that, and other sticky issues, Mr. Trudeau will have to make a decision and it’s unlikely the outcome in either direction will garner overwhelming sup- port. -- Reka Szekely covers Oshawa and writes columns on social media and politics reka Szekely Reporter 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 • No v e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 5 7 P Want to know what’s happening in Pickering?

The early-stage information was brought forward at the City’s planning and development committee meeting on Nov. 9. Marshall Homes is applying for an official plan amendment and zoning bylaw amendment to re-designate a portion of the subject lands from low- density urban residential areas to high- density. The townhouses will be within three multi-unit residential blocks accessed through an internal private road. The blocks will range from three to four sto- reys. Mayor Dave Ryan and Ward 3 Regional Councillor David Pickles expressed con- cerns with an underground parking lot with only 73 spaces -- a ratio of one spot to one unit. The presentation was for information only, and plans can change before the application comes back to the planning and development committee and coun- cil for approval at a future date. Finch Avenue will be closed to through traffic East of Altona Road to Rosebank Road to extend the sewer mainline and to service the development on the South side of Finch Ave. FINCH AVENUE ROAD CLOSURE For more information,please contact: KIRK TImmS Sabourin Kimble &Associates Ltd.

Pickering has gone from being a Town to a City, the Internet went from its early stages to a place where almost all elements of municipal government can be found, and it’s become more focused on customer care. “I think we’ve seen a shift or an enhanced focus, if you will, at looking out at the community and at the same time, inviting the community in,” said Mayor Dave Ryan. He said residents should feel comfortable coming to City Hall, the part of the civic complex that houses municipal government and services. “It starts right here in the mayor’s office. I have an open- door policy,” he said. He said the councillors have the same mandate. “We’re always trying to make ourselves accessible,” he said. “It’s a people’s place.” To provide better customer service, Pickering has recent- ly launched a new mobile app, Pingstreet, which gives smartphone and tablet users quick access to popular information, and provides the ability to receive important municipal information. Users can report a problem, stay up-to-date on council meetings and events, get informa- tion on road work and access the City’s Facebook and Twit- ter feeds, among many other features of the app. Earlier this month, the City held a doors open event to mark the 25-year milestone. “We had tours of the council area, councillors’ offices and my office,” said Mayor Ryan. He said it’s important that people stay involved in munic- ipal affairs. “I think it’s important because municipal government, which is centred here at City Hall, is really the level of gov- ernment which touches on people every day, which is dif- ferent from the provincial and federal governments. “It’s an extremely important aspect of life in general,” he said. Mayor Ryan was first elected in 1994, four years after the current building was constructed. “I think it still is pretty,” he said of the current building. Coinciding with the milestone, City Hall is getting a much-needed new crest and clock tower replacement. The new logo will be comprised of stand-off letters and the City logo brushed in stainless steel. The sign will be backlit with energy efficient LED lighting. Although the new building’s history is quite young at the quarter-century mark, the history of Pickering’s municipal government stretches back more than 200 years. According to Pickering’s local history and genealogy librarian Becky George, Pickering’s first council meeting was held on March 4, 1811. These early council meetings were held at various homes and taverns in Brougham until Township Hall in Brougham was built in 1854 by the village residents. The first council meeting held in the building took place on Jan. 18, 1858, but council outgrew the Brougham Town- ship Hall by the early 1960s. Council voted to build a new town hall on the northeast corner of Brock and Kingston roads, said Ms. George, and the first council meeting in this building took place on Oct. 26, 1966. The building, which was eventually torn down, stood where the Durham Regional Police Station is now locat- ed. Town Hall quickly became outdated and the pressure was on to find a new location for Pickering’s headquarters in the late 1980s. “Everything was small and tight and it was old,” said Mayor Ryan of the former town hall. “It smelled old.” Mayor Ryan was not mayor or even councillor at the time, but he moved to Pickering in 1985 and became involved in the community, and often attended meetings at the former town hall. “It was old and dated and the city was growing and it couldn’t house all of the staff and functions that were required,” he said. Ward 3 City Councillor Rick Johnson was on council at the time and was part of the decision to find the new loca- tion. “It wasn’t energy efficient at all, it had no wheelchair access,” he said. “It was really a dilapidated old build- ing.” Some staff members were housed at the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation building at Liverpool Road and Hwy. 401. “We wanted to bring all our staff under one roof,” said Coun. Johnson. Staff complained about the heat and air condition- ing always on the fritz and council all shared the same office, along with one part-time secretary. So council voted to meet demands and the doors of a brand new building opened in May, 1990. Originally, there was no plan for a library, said Coun. Johnson, but then-mayor Wayne Arthurs pushed for it, and it’s now a big part of the Civic Complex. How tHis iMpaCts you • The plaque on the Civic Complex reads, ‘This civic com- plex has been designed to be the focal point of our down- town. It projects our pride today and confidence in the future.’ • Planning and development, bylaw services and custom- er care are just a few of the services that are centred at City Hall. • The Civic Complex is also the place where community events happen, including the annual tree lighting, Sunday concerts and Ribfest. • To help residents understand how their local government works, the City is offering a free, seven-session course called Pickering 101. Through weekly, two-hour classes, the City intends to arm participants with the knowledge they need to learn, and actively engage in, the planning and processes behind the facilities, services, events, and programs that touch their everyday lives. The course runs on Wednesday evenings from Jan. 20 to March 2.

Pay parking tickets with toys in Pickering PICKERING -- If approved by council, parking tickets issued between Dec. 1 through Dec. 18 will be eligible for the Toys for Tickets and Food for Fines program. Council’s executive committee approved the program, which accepts toys or gro- ceries in lieu of payment for parking tick- ets, at its Nov. 9 meeting. Toy or food dona- tions must be dropped off to City Hall, and a receipt must be presented to confirm that the value of the donation equals or exceeds the fine. Tickets for parking in disabled parking spaces are not eligible. The program in Pickering began in 2009 and has supported local families in need. This year’s program will share donations with the Durham Regional Police Service Food and Toy Drive and the Pickering Fire Services Food and Toy Drive. The lost revenue associated with the pro- gram in 2014 was $1,288. Similar lost rev- enue is anticipated for 2015. It will go to council for final approval on Nov. 16.

OFF Durham Region council composition committee wants northern council, mayor positions to remain DURHAM -- The committee deciding the shape and size of Regional council has decid- ed the mayor and Regional council positions in the northern Durham municipalities will remain. A motion to allow the positions to continue was brought forward by Uxbridge Regional Councillor Jack Ballinger and passed at the latest Regional council composition review committee meeting. The committee met to prepare the interim update for Regional council on its findings to date. “I truly believe that the north has to have representation,” Regional Chairman Roger Anderson said at the meeting. The next meeting will be Nov. 25 when the committee will discuss its interim update to Regional council. This full-day session will include a review of the presentations and reports received to date, and consideration of outstanding issues. The committee’s final findings are due by March 2016 and decisions will be up to coun- cil. Committee agendas and minutes are avail- able online at www.durham.ca . Central East LHIN regional cardiovascular program in Durham honoured by Province DURHAM -- A cardiovascular service in Durham is receiving provincial recogni- tion. The Central East LHIN Regional Car- diovascular Rehabilitation and Second- ary Prevention Service was recently rec- ognized as a member of the 2015 Min- ister’s Medal Honour Roll. The annual program celebrates the collaborative efforts of Ontario’s health-care providers in improving care for Ontarians. The service was launched in 2012 by Rouge Valley Health System and has expanded to serve 4,000 patients annu- ally at 12 community centres across the Central East LHIN. Nearly 95 per cent of the patients have had access to com- munity-based sites less than 30 minutes from their home. More than 90 per cent have waited less than four weeks to join the service. The program is designed to reduce the risk of all patients with vascular disease, including heart disease, stroke, periph- eral vascular disease and kidney disease. The number of patients participating in the program has continued to increase, leading to reduced risk of hospitaliza- tion and the need for clinical interven- tion. 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 • No v e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 5 14 AP Ajax Showroom 88 Old Kingston Road, Pickering Village,Ajax •905-428-0937 www.sunshade.ca •info@sunshade.ca 1 Week only!* On Selected Blinds & Shades!

Durham man, 25, charged in underage prostitute sting Jeremy Grimaldi newsroom@durhamregion.com YORK REGION -- Prostitution is known as the oldest profession in the world. But despite all the warnings about how the trade impacts women and how much of the riches go to pimps, it continues to be as pop- ular as ever. In modern times, police focused on target- ing the prostitutes rather than johns. That failed strategy has slowly started to shift, as investigators realized it’s the demand that drives the industry, not the supply. Then came 2014’s Bill C-36, which deliv- ered a strong message: Canada’s prostitution law is no longer about public nuisance, rath- er the protection of vulnerable persons. York Regional Police’s VICE squad, which has not charged a sex worker in more than seven years, took this as a sign that action was needed. In two separate stings over the past two years, York police’s VICE squad has been posing online as underage prostitutes and arresting men who hire and then try to meet up. In all, 32 were charged with a variety of offences including luring. During the first sting last year, York cops made 10 arrests. They made an additional 22 more in four nights last week. In each case, the men had hired the prosti- tutes, discovered their age, 16, and had plans to meet them at hotels around the region, including Markham, Vaughan and Rich- mond Hill. The clients never got that far. Once the johns, aged between 18 and 54, opened the door to the room, they were arrested and charged with luring and arrangement with a child for the purpose of sexual services and obtaining sexual servic- es from a person under 18. Justice was swift and harsh against four men who were arrested last year and chose to plead guilty. Each was handed a sentence ranging between two and seven months in prison, along with between two and three years’ probation. Some were placed on the sex offenders registry for 10 years and others have had to hand over DNA samples. Those who haven’t pleaded guilty contin- ue to work their way through the justice sys- tem. If there’s one positive in the information garnered by those working undercover, it’s that between 80 and 90 per cent of the johns who discovered the ‘girl’ was underage, did not engage. For the rest, Detective Sergeant Peter Casey has little sympathy. “Some of the messages would shock and disturb general public,” he said. “We con- sider these men to be exploiters. Each and every one of the 32 knew exactly what they were purchasing and had lots of opportunity to disengage from the transaction.” He said he’s not concerned about detailing exactly how police are arresting these men because he considers it a “warning” of sorts to the men who hire prostitutes. Five of the men charged are from Markham, three from Richmond Hill, three from Whitchurch-Stouffville, two from Brad- ford and one from Whitby. 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 • No v e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 5 15 APPickering Location: 6 - 1822 Whites Rd., Pickering • 905-421-0111 oSHaWa Location: coMing Soon! 1487 Simcoe Street N.

Use this simple trick to give your scraper a break. DID YOU KNOW? 1. Waiting until the rst snowfall to think about having your winter tires put on is de nitely not a good idea. Not only do you risk having an accident while driving without the proper tires, but it’ll also be hard to get a timely appointment at the garage. 2. Desperately trying to start a frozen engine by turning the key for too long can cause engine damage. Any single attempt to turn over your engine should not exceed 20 seconds. If it doesn’t start, wait two minutes before trying again. 3. Installing only two winter tires out of four is a risky way to try and save money — not to mention that it’s illegal in certain provinces. In winter driving, the difference in traction between winter and summer tires can cause a drastic skid and an accident. 4. Keeping a spare container of windshield washer uid in your vehicle is always a good idea. On a highway, when your windshield is being continually sprayed with wet, dirty snow from ot her vehicles, run - ning out of wa s her uid greatly re duces your visibility and your safety. 5. When their car lock is frozen, many people be come im patient and use too much force when tur ning the key, which can end up breaking. To avoid this doubly frustrating situation, get yourself an alcohol-based de- icer and keep it in your purse or backpack.

The Uxbridge resident and country music artist, who just released What It’s Like, has fond memories of playing the hall as a youngster in musical theatre. It was the first place she ever performed in front of an audience. “I performed there many times grow- ing up, it’s pretty cool to go back there and perform with my band,” she says. “It’s one of my favourite venues.” Daniels is in south Durham on Nov. 14 to play Up Close and Personal, a Habitat for Humanity Durham event at the Deer Creek Golf and Banquet Facility in Ajax. Rewind three years and she played the inaugural Boots and Hearts Music Fes- tival in Clarington as an emerging art- ist. She was back this year, the first for the festival at its new home north of Bar- rie, but performed on the big stage. It was validation that she’d come a long way since 2012, including winning the 2015 Rising Star award from the Country Music Association of Ontario. “It was awesome; it was huge, tonnes of people,” she says of this year’s Boots and Hearts. And Daniels said it felt a lot like home as the first few rows in the crowd were filled with people from Uxbridge. What It’s Like is a bit of a retrospective in that “this album is kind of like the last three years of my life. “It’s a mixture of so many different things,” Daniels says, noting there’s a range of songs on the record. She had a hand in writing all but one of them and says she had to get used to col- laborating, not familiar territory for her. “I used to only write by myself when I first started,” she says, adding she was “kind of freaked out” at the thought of writing a song with someone. “The more I did it the more I fell in love with it. It’s really amazing to get other people’s perspective ... I learned so much.” Daniels came by country music natu- rally. Her grandfather, who played gui- tar and sang, introduced her to it and it didn’t take a lot of listening for her to share his love for the genre. “I think the biggest thing is the storytell- ing; that’s what really sets country music apart,” Daniels says of what attracted her to it. “The lyrics are really important.” She says it’s a great genre to allow her to share her stories with others. Now, the country music she listened to with her grandfather isn’t the country music that’s popular today, but Daniels says she likes how it’s evolved to incorpo- rate rock and pop. “My music is described as country, but it’s pretty crossover,” she says. The first album was released only a few weeks ago, but Daniels says it’s natural to start thinking about the second one. And while it’s very early in the process, she’s thinking it may be “a less pop-y album” and closer to traditional country music. “I really want to take the time and do some songwriting and see where it takes me,” she says. Visit leahdaniels.blogspot.ca to learn more about Daniels and buy the album, also available on iTunes. You can also check her out on Twitter @leahdaniels, Instagram @imleahdaniels, Facebook leahdanielsmusic and on YouTube leah- danielstv. And see her at Up Close and Personal. The event starts at 5 p.m. and includes a full dinner, s’more dessert bar, mix and mingle with mocktails and a take-home gift. And of course Daniels, who says she’s playing an acoustic show, a roughly 40-minute set. For tickets, visit www.habitatdurham. com.

Jason Liebregts / Metroland AJAX -- Ajax Community Theatre’s Jo-Anne Adams, Derek Barber and Daniel Wyse rehearsed It’s a Wonderful Life. My music is described as country, but it’s pretty crossover. -- Leah Daniels “ Mike Ruta mruta@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- John-Charles Coolen says helping singers become better singers is the highlight of his job. “There’s a developmental aspect there, working with people who are new singers or are developing as singers that I enjoy,” says the Durham Community Choir’s director. “It’s very rewarding when we perform. “They’re a joy to work with and they’re all passionate about music.” The Ajax resident has 17 years under his belt with the Durham Community Choir, which started in 1994. And Handel’s Mes- siah has been a part of the choir’s reper- toire from the beginning, performed every other year now. An English-language orato- rio and reflection on Christ, the Messiah is in three parts and the entire version is some three-and-a-half hours in length. The DCC doesn’t perform the full piece, but sings the entire first section and selections from the second and third. Coolen notes it’s tradi- tional for the audience to stand for the Hal- lelujah chorus, at the end of the first part, explaining the story is that when the Eng- lish King George II heard it in 1743, he was so moved he stood up and the audience fol- lowed suit. “It’s very much in the style of Baroque music,” Coolen says. “Messiah is one of the holiday staples; it’s a great opportunity for the Durham Region audience to hear this holiday favourite.” Guest soloists include the “fantastic” Alex- ander Dobson, bass, who has sung Messiah with the choir a number of times, and the “phenomenal” Talisker Players. “With a professional orchestra and solo- ists, that just takes the performance to a new level. It inspires the choir.” The DCC numbers around 60 and is set up on sort of a semester system. The non- auditioned choir features many people from Oshawa, Whitby and Clarington, plus several from Ajax. The ages range from the late 20s /early 30s to a male singer in his 80s. “We‘ve developed a really warm, welcom- ing feeling in the choir,” Coolen says. A new session begins in early January and Coolen says the choir will be preparing music from the golden age of Broadway for performance in late April. “We’re open to anyone who wants to sing with us,” he says, inviting those interested to a rehearsal or two to check it out, adding there’s no obligation to join. See Messiah on Nov. 22 at 3 p.m. at College Park Seventh-day Adven- tist Church, 1164 King St. E., Oshawa. Tickets are $25 ($15 for those 12 and under) and available at several locations, including Lafontaine in Whitby and Dur- ham School of Music in Ajax.

Brad Gushue, Glenn Howard, Brad Jacobs and Mike McEwen on the men’s and Jennifer Jones on the wom- en’s side are just a few of the 30 skips who will be competing at the General Motors Centre Nov. 10-15. The National had been a men’s invi- tational since the inaugural season of the series, but has now expanded to include a women’s division. There will be 15 teams on both sides. McEwen is the odds-on favourite on the men’s side thanks to a triple- threat combo of being fresh off cap- turing the Masters last weekend in Nova Scotia, winner of the previous Grand Slam held at the GM Centre as well as the defending champion of the National. McEwen defeated Jacobs in last year’s National final in Sault Ste. Marie and won a dramatic final over Howard at the 2010-11 Canadian Open held at the GM Centre. Howard’s rink will be back for anoth- er shot at the title, and will have some local talent in second Richard Hart, who’s from Pickering. The event runs through Sunday, Nov. 15 when the championship games are held at noon for the men and 4 p.m. for the women.

Richard Hart Shore among the Stars Ajax resident makes NHL debut after being called up by Dallas Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com DALLAS — Roaming the mall in search of a Halloween costume, Devin Shore instead got an unexpected call that put him in a uniform that fit perfectly. That’s where and what the Ajax resi- dent was doing when he got the call that he was being summoned up to make his NHL debut with the Dallas Stars. Plans for a pending team dinner with a Hal- loween theme with his AHL Texas Stars were dashed. “I was at the mall when I got the call,” says Shore from his Dallas hotel of being called up. “They said you are going to hop on a flight in four hours from Aus- tin to Dallas, it’s just a quick 45-minute flight, and pack for a week-long road trip. “I quickly got home and packed all the essentials, a carry-on and bag of clothes, got a ride to the airport and joined up with the team the next morning.” Once the call came, Shore sent out a number of text messages to let as many people know as he could. The first was to his brother, Darin, who had good news of his own to share, having just joined the Ajax-Pickering Raiders juve- nile team. Shore was tearing up the AHL to start his rookie campaign, scoring eight times and adding three assists in nine games. His effort earned him AHL player of the month honours for October, but he had no idea it would result in being elevated to the NHL. “The call definitely threw me off,” he admits. “When you are playing in the AHL you don’t want to focus on the big club too much. You want to make sure your focus is on the team you are on. You want to focus on your own team- mates and the next game you have with the Texas Stars. That way you can be at your best on game day. “I knew (Dallas) had some injuries, but I didn’t know if they were looking to make a call-up.” The 21-year-old second-round draft pick from 2012 was in Toronto with the big club for a game Nov. 2, but made his debut the following night in Boston, a 5-3 win in which he logged just over 11 minutes of ice time. He also played in the next two road games in Carolina and Detroit, before listed as a healthy scratch for a Nov. 10 home game against Toronto. In just one week, he has been exposed to the upscale lifestyle of professional hockey, a vast difference from the days he spent as a member of the Whitby Fury, and three years at the University of Maine. “The travel is a lot nicer. The bus takes you from the arena right to the plane. You just do a quick, private team secu- rity and you are on the jet with leg room and food,” he says in describing the treatment. “You fly into the next city where a bus is waiting to pick you up right from the runway and you go straight to the hotel. “The travel is amazing and the food is unreal. It’s a luxurious lifestyle and we are all pretty fortunate to be part of it.” Shore was heavily scouted with the Whitby Fury during the 2011-12 season, putting up 29-29-58 point totals in 41 games. After being drafted by Dallas in 2012, he opted to accept a scholarship to the University of Maine. But following his junior year, after consulting with his parents and the Dallas Stars organiza- tion, he opted not to return for a senior season, turning pro instead in time for this season. “It came down to the point where I thought I was ready to be a pro hockey player,” he says. “I owe the world to the University of Maine. They helped me so much as a hockey player on and off the ice. It was tough to leave, but it was a decision that was best for me and my hockey career to keep getting better. “The ultimate goal is to be a pro hock- ey player and play in the NHL. When I was given the opportunity to sign an NHL contract, it’s tough to pass up.” The next milestone to achieve will be his first NHL goal. While he idolizes the likes of Sidney Crosby and Jonathan Toews, who rank as his favourite players, that wasn’t always the case while grow- ing up. When asked who the player was he called out to be in those very early days of road and pond hockey, it was a name from the past who he claimed. “When I was younger, about two years old, my grandma read me a children’s book on Maurice Richard. He was my idol growing up,” says Shore. “Even though he passed away in 2000, not only did I never see him play obviously, all I heard were stories that my grandpa told me from that book.” While Richard was the first player in the history of the league to score 50 goals in a season and 500 in a career, Shore will be quite content to connect on the first of his career as a starting point. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland WHITBY -- Ajax’s Devin Shore, who played for the Whitby Fury for one season in 2011-2012, made his NHL debut for the Dallas Stars in a game against the Boston Bruins on November 3. He was a second-round pick of Dallas in the 2012 draft. 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 • No v e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 5 25 AP On Now at The Brick!

Dunbarton won 29-13. Pickering Panthers keeping it close, but coming up short PICKERING — The Pickering Panthers earned points in close games, but couldn’t come up with a victory in Ontario Junior Hockey League play. In three recent games, two of them went to overtime, with the Panthers picking up just a single point in each, settling for a 2-2 tie against Markham on Friday, Nov. 6, and a 5-4 overtime loss to the Toronto Patriots on Tuesday, Nov. 10. Sandwiched in between was a 3-1 loss to the Lindsay Muskies on Sun- day, Nov. 8. Against Markham, Tiger McDonald scored on the power play in the first period and Doug Carter added one in the second for a 2-0 Panthers lead. But they squandered that in the third period, as Markham scored twice in a span of 2:09 to tie it, ending the scoring. On home ice to Lindsay, again it was the third period that served as the undoing for the Panthers. Dallas Carter opened the scor- ing for the Panthers in the first, equalled by Lindsay to tie it up later in the period on a penalty shot. Lindsay broke the tie with two goals in the third period, the final one into an empty net with just seven seconds left on the clock. In Toronto to face the Patriots to round out the trio, it was the Panthers who rallied in the third, a goal by Chris Sekelyk just past the midway mark squaring things at 4-4, but Toronto scored in overtime to earn the extra point. Mitchell Waldron, Blake Coffey and Carter had the other goals for the Panthers. The Panthers now sit at 8-9-1-3 as they host Kingston on Friday, Nov. 13 at 7:30 p.m., then make a short trip to Whitby on Sunday, Nov. 15 for a 2:10 p.m. start. Palmer named defender of year at University of Maine MAINE — Noelle Leon-Palmer closed out her senior soccer year by entering the record books at the University of Maine. The Ajax resident and biology major became just the third student-athlete in America East history to be named Defend- er of the Year in back-to-back seasons. The team captain helped Maine’s defence rank third in the conference with a 1.10 goals against average, helping contribute to three shutouts during conference play. Prior to enrolling at Maine, Leon-Palmer was a member of the provincial soccer pro- gram in 2008 and 2009, finishing first as a member of Team Ontario at the national championships in 2008. The Pickering High School graduate helped her Pickering Soccer Club team win the Canadian Club national championship, Ontario Cup and Coupe de Quebec in 2011. She also won the Canadian Club national championship in 2010. While at Pickering High School she was a three-year honour roll student and an elite track athlete. 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 • No v e m b e r 1 2 , 2 0 1 5 26 AP Carrier of the Week Congratulations Juliana for being our Carrier of the Week.

LOSSA football titles to be decided on day of champions OSHAWA — The defending champion Dwyer Saints of Oshawa and unbeaten Holy Trinity Titans of Courtice will battle it out Saturday, Nov. 14 for LOSSA senior football supremacy and a trip to Hamilton for the Eastern Bowl later this month. The Saints, last year’s senior champ, defeated the Pickering Trojans 20-9 while the Titans improved their overall record to 7-0 with a 15-6 win over the Wilson Gators in the LOSSA semifinals Tuesday, Nov. 10. The two powerhouses, who battled into overtime during their regular season meet- ing, will square off at Oshawa’s Civic Stadi- um at 7 p.m. on Saturday in the senior tier 1 final, the last of four LOSSA championship games that day. To get there, the Saints rode touchdowns from Vance Bundy and Dawson Odei and a pair of field goals from Jordan Baron- et to victory over Pickering. Darnel Jarrett scored the lone touchdown for the Trojans. Michael Drake led the Titans in their semifinal with a touchdown, two converts and a single point, while Nathan Jones scored the other major. Jacob Hill found the end zone in the second quarter for the Gators, who trailed by only a point until the fourth quarter. Saturday’s championship day at the Civic begins at 10 a.m. with the junior tier 2 final between opponents to be deter- mined Wednesday. Pickering’s Pine Ridge Pumas faced Oshawa’s O’Neill Red Hawks while Pickering’s St. Mary Monarchs were up against Oshawa’s Eastdale Eagles in the afternoon semifinal matches. The junior tier 1 final will see Holy Trinity and Pickering square off at 1 p.m. Saturday after both teams produced semifinal victo- ries Tuesday. Will Sonego and Ethan Duggan each had two touchdowns as the Titans downed Dwyer 26-8, while Daniel Carinci, Elijah Adams and Kelvin Lewis scored once each in a 22-14 win for Pickering over Wilson. In defeat, Hunter Read scored a touchdown for Dwyer, while Yusseff Bowers-Lee and Will Rock found the end zone for Wilson. Saturday’s senior tier 2 championship game will pit Ajax’s Notre Dame Cougars against Eastdale at 4 p.m. Notre Dame defeated O’Neill 20-13 and Eastdale edged Ajax’s J. Clarke Richard- son Storm 18-15 in semifinals Monday, Nov. 9. Notre Dame’s Emmanuel Beal and O’Neill’s Garrett Ouellette each scored a pair of touchdowns.
