Held in Ajax, the meeting was a chance for three Liberal MPs to outline what the party is hoping to do by moving to a new electoral system. Mark Holland (Ajax) said one of the planks in the party’s platform was electoral reform, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau saying last year’s federal election would be the last one with the first-past-the-post system. “I’m hearing people have a passion for electoral reform. We’ve had the same sys- tem for 150 years,” Mr. Holland said, adding the NDP made the same commitment dur- ing the election. AJAX -- Liberal MPs, from left, Mark Holland (Ajax), Jennifer O’Connell (Pickering- Uxbridge) and Celina Caesar-Chavannes (Whitby) took questions during a town hall electoral reform meeting at the McLean Community Centre. The Liberals are look- ing at different methods of deciding the winners in elections. Mr. Holland addressed a question during the event.

Every system, includ- ing ours, has flaws,” he noted. Among issues also being studied are man- datory voting and electronic voting, he said. Joining Mr. Holland were Jennifer O’Connell (Pickering-Uxbridge) and Celina Caesar-Chavannes (Whitby). A parliamentary committee will issue a report by the end of August, which will be fol- lowed by consultations across the country. In December, a report will be tabled, with rec- ommendations. By the spring, a legislative response will be issued. “One year from now, we’ll be dealing with the finalization of that. This is the beginning of a long road. It will be an incredibly open road,” Mr. Holland said, adding whatever sys- tem is finalized, it will be “a uniquely Canadi- an system.” Among the alternatives being considered are preferential ballots, ranked choice voting, single transferable votes, mixed member pro- portional representation (see the sidebar). Jack Brill, of Ajax, said, “It’s not for you three to decide how you get to Parliament. It’s up to us, the people.” He was still studying the various options and added he could do without a referendum if “all three major parties agree. If not, we go to a referendum.” “Democracies welcome input. A referen- dum is the ultimate input. Dictators discour- age input,” Mr. Brill said. Jim Wiseman, a retired teacher and former NDP MPP in the 1990s, said he disagreed with holding a referendum. “I don’t think it’s necessary or desirable. We’ve made a lot of changes in how voting is done without a referendum,” he said. Some of those changes including giving women the right to vote in 1917 and lowering the voting age from 21 to 18, he noted. Author D’Arcy Jenish noted the Liberals got 39 per cent of the vote in last year’s election. “Do you have the right to make a funda- mental change to the system?” he asked. More than one person raised the concern that whatever system is picked would favour the Liberals. Richard Ciano of Keep Voting Simple, a group opposed to changing the voting meth- ods, said, “It’s quite clear you’re pushing (alternative voting) or (single transferable vote).” Mr. Holland said, “I don’t believe for a sec- ond Canadians would support a system that keeps one party in power in perpetuity. “Whatever system comes out of this will make the system better, not our fortunes,” he added. Gord Gray of Uxbridge said, “We voted for you to represent us. So, represent us. Make this part of your platform.” He was also leery about using electronic voting, saying, “I don’t know a single system that doesn’t have a bug.” Mr. Holland noted the first time the House of Commons studied voting systems was in 1913 and there have been numerous studies since. “All that collective body of work is informing this. It’s been talked about and talked about and talked about and nothing’s been done,” he noted. “It doesn’t make sense to reinvent the wheel.” Matthew Primeau, 22, of Whitby said FPTP was instituted when there were only two par- ties. He didn’t agree with one suggestion of rais- ing the voting age. “It’s taking away my voice.” James McAllister of Ajax said FPTP is “an old-fashioned system designed in the horse- and-buggy era.” The Liberals would also need the support of the other parties before switching to a new system, he added. Stephanie Brown, the NDP candidate in Ajax in the last federal election, didn’t sup- port mandatory voting, saying, “A healthy democracy means respect for other people’s choices. Not voting is a way of expressing your views.” Ms. Brown favours proportional represen- tation, saying “it’s worked well in other coun- tries.” Mr. Holland said, “Whatever is selected needs to be simple and easy to understand.” If the system picked can be described in a single elevator trip, then it’s simple and understandable, he noted. ElEction altErnativEs Voting systems being considered: Alternative vote and run-off (or two- round) system -- Both are considered major- ity electoral systems, with the winning candi- date the individual who gets a majority (over 50 per cent) of the votes cast. This system can be designed in different ways. Voters could rank the candidates running in their electoral district in order of their preference. If no can- didate receives a majority of votes on the first count, candidates are dropped until some- one has a majority of votes. Another exam- ple is a system in which there are two elec- tion days, generally weeks apart. In this type of electoral system, if no candidate receives a majority of votes in the first round, there is a second election with only the top two can- didates from the first election result. The can- didate with the higher number of votes in the second round is elected. Proportional representation -- The number of seats a party would have would be based on the percentage of the vote it received. Examples of this include single transferable vote and list proportional repre- sentation. Mixed electoral system -- Voters would cast two ballots, one for a candidate in their riding and one for a party. Each party would have a list of candidates and candidates would be chosen from the list based on the proportion of the vote the party receives.

Whatever system comes out of this will make the system better, not our fortunes. -- Ajax Liberal MP Mark Holland “ NEW from page 1 InsIde July 27, 2016 Pressrun 54,400 / 36 pages editorial Page / 6 Focus on Health / 9 Wheels / Pullout Classified / 13 905-215-0442 durhamregion.com The latest news from across durham Region, Ontario, Canada and the world all day, every day. search ‘newsdurham’ on your favourite social media channel.

Executive director Karen Ormerod says the local shelter is not following in the footsteps of an animal shelter in Alaska that’s encour- aging players of the popular smartphone game to stop by and take a dog with them on their hunt for creatures around the region. “My concern is that we don’t just let any- body come in and walk our dogs,” she said. “Any of our volunteers register with us and we have to do that for liability insurance pur- poses.” There’s a process that prospective dog walkers must undergo, she added, which begins with submitting an application and attending an interview and orientation ses- sion prior to being accepted to the program. After that, there’s a training process that involves learning not only how to properly walk the dogs but also how to interact with them. “We call it ‘enrichment’ -- it’s keeping them social, keeping them happy. So we train (vol- unteers on) how you properly walk a dog on a leash so they’re not pulling at you, how to do basic commands and signs, and to know that some dogs know it really well, other dogs don’t ... all that is involved in the train- ing and it’s not something where you can just give some stranger off the street playing Pokemon a five-minute intro and he’s going to nail it.” There are currently about a dozen dogs at the shelter -- all with varying temperaments and some with medical issues that require extra attention. The dogs are also catego- rized based on the level of experience they require from a dog walker, she explained. “With some of the dogs that come to us, and sometimes the reason they come to us, is they have behavioural issues so part of the time here, we devote a lot of energy into improving that behavior and a lot of that comes down to what the staff do and then ensuring that the volunteers continue the type of training that the staff have started.” Ms. Ormerod said staff would be worried about volunteers’ attention being divided between their task and playing Pokemon GO. “Last night driving home I saw four guys in the dark walking down the sidewalk only looking at their phones and nothing else, and our concern would be they’re not really paying attention to the dogs,” she said. “I would love to find a way to capitalize on this craze for us but I don’t know that this is the best way. We’re concerned about the dogs and their safety.” Durham Humane Society not encouraging Pokemon GO players to volunteer to walk dogs Metroland file photo DURHAM -- The Durham Humane Society says playing Pokemon GO while walking dogs could be distracting for people to ensure dogs’ safety. 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 • Ju l y 2 7 , 2 0 1 6 4 P PETA claims Bowmanville Zoo staffer repeatedly shot a BB gun at giraffe Stefanie Swinson sswinson@durhamregion.com BOWMANVILLE -- There’s more controver- sy for the Bowmanville Zoo as PETA has filed a cruelty complaint with the Ontario SPCA alleging a giraffe at the zoo was mistreated by zoo staff on June 25. It is alleged that a BB gun was used while trying to get a giraffe to go into a barn after the zoo had closed for the day. The Bowmanville Zoo did not respond to a request for comment before press time. In the letter to an OSPCA chief inspector, PETA’s counsel, Jenni James, wrote “the wit- nesses reportedly saw the giraffe react to the gun being fired by jumping, running quickly in circles, and looking all around as if con- fused ... When the giraffe slowed down, the shooter aimed and discharged the gun again, shooting at the giraffe seven times.” The witnesses told PETA they could not tell if the BB gun was loaded. The OSPCA confirmed it did receive a com- plaint late Tuesday, July 19. “As this concern was just reported to us, it is too early to speak to details,” said Melissa Kosowan, the senior manager of communications for the OSPCA. She went on to add “the Ontario SPCA takes these reports very seriously and we are following up accordingly.” In a statement to Metroland Media Group’s Durham Region Division, PETA said it believed the shooter was a zoo employee because she appeared to be wearing a uni- form. Zoo owner and former director Michael Hackenberger was charged by the OSPSCA in April with animal cruelty charges stem- ming from a hidden camera video recorded and released by PETA last December which appears to show him whipping a tiger during a training session. Mr. Hackenberger’s case has not been tried in court. A judicial pretri- al is slated for Thursday, July 21. The zoo has called the allegations “untrue.” PETA is calling for the giraffe to be seized, citing Ontario law which allows for the sei- zure of animals if a veterinarian determines that removing them is necessary for their health and well-being. “Terrorizing giraffes into obedience could easily prove fatal to these fragile and skittish animals, who have been injured and even died in captivity after falling or running into barriers,” said Brittany Peet, PETA founda- tion director of captive animal law enforce- ment. PETA said the reports are supported by eyewitness footage which allegedly shows zoo employees discussing shooting animals with BB guns. That video has been posted to YouTube.

If the Senate agrees, it would become “in all of us command.”  Bill C-210 was introduced by MP Mauril Belanger -– an advocate for a gender-neutral version -- and it passed on his birthday, no less. When it did, the House sang the revised version like an unofficial happy birth- day to him. I’m wondering if this one word was really an issue for the rest of the popula- tion and how it became a priority on the House agenda in the times we’re living in. They say using the word “sons” is sex- ist, but who doesn’t realize that saying sons also includes daughters? Perhaps the “us” wasn’t so much about females being left out as it was about including the transgender community? But if a nation doesn’t have sons and daughters in the truest sense --  those who identify with the nation to the point where Can- ada is first before the nation we were born in because we’re here now or any agenda we have, then patriot love will cease to exist. But this isn’t the first time the anthem has been manhandled or should I say us-handled? And it apparently wasn’t the last. The Canadian music group the Ten- ors proved that. As the group sang the national anthem at the Major League Baseball All-Star game, member Remigio Pereira  decided to change a whole verse, referencing the increas- ingly offensive hashtag All Lives Mat- ter, angering the rest of his group and receiving a swift backlash from the pub- lic. So unusual was the situation that the rest of the group had to set the record straight regarding Mr. Pereira’s actions, calling him a lone wolf after the inci- dent. But in true Canadian fashion, the Tenors didn’t yank the microphone out of his hand and stop him from desecrat- ing the anthem then and there. Instead they looked on in bewilderment and let him sing his song.   If the recent treatment of the anthem is any indication, it’s clear that from politicians to entertainers, we think it’s about us and when we think that way, we do what suits us. We’ll say it’s to include others, but if you check the response of the others, you’ll see that it’s not. -- Renae Jarrett lives in Durham, loves Canada and is a communicator of truth.

It’s been scorching hot lately and our actions, or inactions, are making the plan- et hotter. Ontario’s Climate Change Strat- egy seeks to reduce greenhouse gas emis- sions (GGE) to 80 per cent below 1990 levels by 2050. According to the Province, Ontario reached the six per cent reduction target in 2014 and is aiming for 15 per cent by the year 2020. While industry and other sources are big greenhouse gas emitters, you may be sur- prised to learn that ordinary people can play a major role. The government of Ontario, citing 2013 numbers, says transportation is the big- gest source of GGE in the province. And the biggest chunk comes from road trans- portation, gasoline-powered vehicles. The Province says passenger car trips account for more GGE than the combined emis- sions coming from the iron, steel, cement and chemicals sectors in Ontario. As you are aware, the Province and many other jurisdictions around Canada, North America and even the world, are banking on investments in public transit and other measures to reduce GGE. It’s an important part of the equation, but the reality is we are a society of cars and trucks and that’s not likely to change in the near future. According to the David Suzuki Foundation, one way we can help miti- gate the problem is before we purchase that next vehicle: the foundation recom- mends that we first look at the federal gov- ernment’s Auto Smart ratings to ensure it’s fuel efficient and not a big polluter. And do you really need an SUV? They are big-time greenhouse gas emitters. We should also keep our vehicles well-main- tained, and this includes ATVs, dirt bikes and even the boat at the cottage. Around the house, there’s more to be done. The Province says buildings, includ- ing private houses, accounted for 19 per cent of GGE in 2013. Keeping our house well-maintained will reduce emissions -- and save homeowners money. So have an energy audit done. You’re house may be leaking heat -- causing you to waste energy and money. Sealing up doors and windows and ensuring the attic is well- insulated can save you energy and cash -- while helping the planet as well. Climate change is still debated, but there’s no doubt we personally contribute to GGE and the warming of the planet. By starting at home, we can be a part of the solution. -- Metroland Media Group Ltd., Durham Region Division Make a dent in the world’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions renae Jarrett Guest columnist Agree?

AJAX -- Cops are seeking a lone suspect after a robbery Monday morning at an Ajax sub shop. The suspect entered a Subway on Ravenscroft Road at about 7:15 a.m. July 25 and ordered breakfast, Durham police said. As the order was being pre- pared, the bandit produced a baton and demanded cash. When the restaurant worker fled to the back of the store, the suspect jumped a counter and took cash from the till, police said. He’s white, 35 to 40, and wore a dark hoodie with an Old Navy logo as well as a black ball cap and sunglasses.

Officers were alerted to the incident, in the area of Fairport and Glenanna roads, just before 3 a.m. July 24, Durham police said. A southbound Dodge Ram pickup struck a Honda that was parked with two occupants inside, then accelerated for- ward, pushing the Honda into five other vehicles that were parked on either side of the street, police said. The driver of the pickup got out of the truck but ran back to it when witnesses approached, police said. Cops found a man in the driver’s seat of the truck; he was arrested after a brief struggle. The two occupants of the Honda were treated at hospital for minor injuries. Gabriel Gago Da Camara, 29, of Fair- port Road, is charged with impaired driving and driving while exceeding the legal blood alcohol limit.

Chiropractor Maria Gatti offers some tips on buying and wearing women’s shoes in the summer. The right time to buy shoes is “either in the afternoon or evening. The feet swell during the day, so you have to wait to account for that,” Ms. Gatti noted. During the day, gravity pulls fluids to the feet, causing the swelling. “In the summer, it gets hot, so buy later in the day to account for swelling,” she said. When it comes to buying shoes, she points to things that should be avoid- ed, such as buying shoes with “too many straps that can get into the skin.” Heels should “ideally, be below two inches (five centimetres). There should be cushioning,” Ms. Gatti noted. The shorter heels prevent putting stress on the back, she noted. She also recommends stretching before putting on heels. “It’s handy to know if you’re wearing heels to stretch before and after.” Heels that are “a little bit bulkier in the back” are optimal, she noted. Ms. Gatti also doesn’t endorse wearing stilettos every day. “Save them for special occasions.” She noted the higher the heel, the more effort it takes for the back and hips to maintain balance. When wearing heels, the body is leaning forward and the back muscles are needed to deal with that. “There’s more strain on the back. Gravity pulls you forward,” she said. “It fatigues the back and makes it work extra.” As for the hips, they rotate the pelvis for- ward and the muscles have to work hard- er. “The ideal shoe has a thick platform with a sturdy heel as low as two inches, with cushioning pads at the front of the foot. Avoid too many straps,” Ms. Gatti said. After a long day, she suggested soaking feet in bath salts. When heading to a function, such as a wedding, she also suggested taking along flats. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland AJAX -- Maria Gatti, a chiropractor at Total Rehab in Ajax, has advice on choosing and wearing high heels. The field of Infectious Diseases is never dull. New diseases are always emerging and spreading, often garnering significant media attention. Most recently, Zika virus has been front and centre after spreading to South America and the Caribbean. Zika has caused a great deal of concern after researchers discovered it can be passed from mother to baby in utero, which leads to severe birth defects. Although we’ve learned a lot over the last year about this previously obscure virus, there remains a number of unanswered questions and uncertainty about Zika. What is Zika virus and how does it spread? Zika is a Flavivirus and is related to den- gue, yellow fever and West Nile Virus. It is spread predominantly through bites of the Aedes mosquito. A pregnant woman can pass Zika to her fetus during pregnancy, which causes seri- ous birth defects including microcephaly (abnormally small head with incomplete brain development). Zika can also spread through sexual inter- course. The virus has been found to be active in semen for more than two months. Most cases of sexual transmission have been from men to their sexual partners. Where did it come from? Zika was actually first discovered in Ugan- da in 1947. It began to spread eastward beginning around 2007, and started to make headlines after an abnormally high number of cases of microcephaly were reported in Brazil in 2015. Can the Zika virus be spread in North America? Zika virus can spread to areas where the Aedes mosquito lives— such as the south- ern United States. The first case of Zika like- ly from a local mosquito bite has just been reported in Florida. Colder climates fur- ther north, including Canada, are not home to the Aedes mosquito, so this makes the spread of Zika here unlikely. What are the symptoms of Zika infec- tion? Most people won’t have symptoms or will only have mild symptoms such as fever, rash, joint and muscle pain, headache, or red eyes. Symptoms usually only last a few days and most people are not sick enough to end up in the hospital. There have been cases of a neurological disorder called Guil- lain-Barre Syndrome associated with Zika virus, but this is rare. As mentioned above, Zika can also cause microcephaly and birth defects in a developing fetus. Should I be worried about Zika virus? Do I need to cancel my trip? Most people don’t need to fear Zika. If you’re travelling to an area with Zika, pro- tect yourself from mosquito bites. The mos- quitoes that spread Zika bite mostly during the day so be sure to use insect repellents with effective ingredients like DEET and cover up as much as possible. Pregnant women should not travel to areas with Zika. If couples are trying to get pregnant, postponing or cancelling travel may be best, because Zika can be sexually transmitted from man to woman even two months after infection. You should also use barrier protection (condoms) during inter- course if your male partner has travelled to an area with Zika, especially if you’re preg- nant or planning on getting pregnant. As we head into the Olympics we will be hearing a lot more about Zika and the ath- letes who have decided not to compete because they’re concerned about catching the disease. But there’s no need to worry about catching this particular virus as you safely cheer for Canada from your home. -- Daniel Ricciuto, MD, FRCPC, is the section chief, Infectious Diseases at Lakeridge Health 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 • Ju l y 2 7 , 2 0 1 6 10 AP WE TREAT YOUR HOME LIKE OUR OWN Call Today For a Free esTimaTe905-427-2116 www.ajaxroofing.com 20 1 4 READE RS’C HOICEA WARD DIAMOND Voted #1 Roofing Company 5 years in a row We also do Blown In Attic Insulation •Fully Insured •WSIB Covered •Family Owned and Operated •First Aid Trained •Written Warranty On Workmanship FOCUS ON FAMILYFOCUSON SENIORS FOCUS ON HEALTH FOCUS ON FOOD & WINE I recently watched a video featuring Ryan Reynolds attempting to put together an Ikea crib. The video included lots of frustration and cussing with Mr. Reynolds eventually giving up and duct taping the crib together. Now this is obviously a tongue and cheek video as I am certain Ikea and Mr. Reynolds would not advocate misusing a product as important as this, but it does effectively portray how difficult and confusing some aspects of child safety can be. All joking aside, the number one child safety item that parents seem to struggle with the most, is the car seat and depending on the car seat, sometimes the manuals can be as difficult to interpret as the instructions that come with Ikea furniture but there are two very serious points: • The number one killer of children under 12 in Canada is automobile accidents. • 80 per cent of car seats are installed and/ or used incorrectly. It is vitally important that parents read their car seat manual completely then refer to their vehicle manual to make sure that both products are in agreement with the car seat placement and method of installation. When parents become frustrated important installation steps can be missed that could ultimately affect the way the car seat per- forms when put to the test. Some questions that confuse parents are: • Is it safer to use both the UAS (Latches) and the seat belt to install? NO • Is the centre of the backseat the best place to install my car seat? THAT DEPENDS on several factors-READ both manuals for compatibility • Can I add aftermarket products to my car seat? In almost all cases, NO • There are all sorts of different loops on the harness and multiple crotch buckle positions. How do I know which ones to use? READ the manual Car seat manufacturers do try to make it as straightforward as possible to use their seats but with so many different vehicles on the market and children with vastly different height, weight, and development differenc- es it’s impossible to come up with a “cookie cutter” solution. Be patient. Don’t guess if you are unsure how to correctly install your child’s seat. Ask for help from a certified car seat technician! -- Sandie Massie is a child safety expert.
