The proposed changes come after sever- al reports sharply criticized the Ministry of Children and Youth Services for failing to ensure that vulnerable children get high- quality care when they are removed from families that neglect or abuse them. p.10 Alcohol and cancer: health unit warns of risks p.13 City doing its part for monarch butterflies Toronto Star photo DURHAM -- Most of a blueprint document aimed at reforming child welfare in Ontario was conducted under then children’s min- ister and Pickering-Scarborough East MPP Tracy MacCharles.Pickering MPP worked on blueprintto overhaul child welfare in Ontario See PROVINCE page 3 Pumpkinville coming to Greenwood Conservation Area Oct. 15 AJAX -- The Town is once again offering its celebration of all things fall on Sat- urday, Oct. 15.

The scrutiny was triggered by an ongoing Star series, which has found a child pro- tection system that is often unaccountable and secretive, and group homes where high numbers of kids are being physically restrained. The reform proposals are contained in a ministry PowerPoint called “Next Steps in Child Welfare and Residential Services,” distributed to executive directors of chil- dren’s aid societies late last week. They would give youths a voice in the child protection system through the estab- lishment of a “youth panel,” and place a greater focus on supporting families so that kids don’t need to be removed. The ministry document describes a sys- tem where “children, youth and their fam- ilies have access to a system of services and supports that is integrated, quality- focused and accountable.” The most contentious reforms are likely to be the ministry’s attempt to get greater control of Ontario’s 47 privately run chil- dren’s aid societies. The Liberal govern- ment wants to amend the Child and Fam- ily Services Act to reverse a trend that for years saw the ministry reduce its oversight and quality control responsibilities. The children’s minister would be given the explicit authority to essentially take over the running of a society by appointing someone to oversee it. The minister could also appoint people to a society’s board of directors, including the board’s chairman. The minister would also have the power to reduce the number of societies through forced amalgamations -- a move that has smaller societies fearing they’ll be force- fed to bigger ones. Religious-based soci- eties, including Toronto’s Catholic Chil- dren’s Aid Society and Jewish Family and Child Services, also fear they’ll be made to disappear. Most of the work behind the blueprint document, dated last June, was conducted under then children’s minister and Pick- ering-Scarborough East MPP Tracy Mac- Charles, who has since been replaced by Michael Coteau. The document is vague about when the reforms will be put in place, stating only that they are part of a “multi-year action plan.” Some of the proposals are inspired by a government-commissioned report ear- lier this year, which described a muddled system where the ministry loses track of children taken into care, has no minimum qualifications for caregivers and allows a growing number of kids “with complex special needs” to be placed in unlicensed programs. In 2014-15, an average of 15,625 children were in foster or group-home care due to abuse or neglect from parents, and thou- sands more were investigated for pos- sible protection. Children’s aid societies received about $1.5 billion in government funding last year. Youth can decide to leave care at age 16, but the government wants to raise that to 18. Societies have been concerned about 16 year olds leaving care with few supports to finish school, get jobs or find housing. Increasing the age limit “will enable youth aged 16 and 17 who are in need of protection to receive age-appropriate ser- vices and supports they need to reach their full potential,” the reform blueprint says. It would also bring Ontario in line with other provinces. The ministry is silent on whether it will provide more funding to implement this change, or any other. The changes would have societies “focus on prevention” while supporting families in a “holistic way.” Services to help fami- lies in crisis need to be better co-ordi- nated. The ministry also proposes “evi- dence-based programs to strengthen fam- ilies,” including pilot projects where men- tors help families and young mothers get “intensive supports.” A major reform would see standards established for licensed group homes and other residential care settings. They would set out how children and youth in those settings should be treated and the quality of care expected. Group homes would have to meet the new standards to get licences renewed. The ministry plans more inspections of group homes, and would have the author- ity to publicly report on those that haven’t fully complied with the standards. A Star investigation found that group homes are quick to call police on youths in their care -- sometimes for minor vio- lations of house rules -- raising concerns about kids being funneled into the justice system. The reforms also promise “a different approach for indigenous communities,” including reducing the number of children placed in non-aboriginal settings outside their communities. A committee to advise the children’s minister on how to improve child protec- tion would be set up, and a new working group would develop training and qualifi- cations for staff in group homes and other residential services. A “centre of excellence” would provide “system-wide leadership for child welfare quality,” conduct research and “monitor and report on system performance.” -- Toronto Star Province also seeks greater control over children’s aid societies: government blueprint PROVINCE from page 1 Pickering-Scarborough East MPP Tracy MacCharles Eat In•Take Out Catering Fully Licensed Buffet Daily at Lunch and Sunday s5pm -9pm www.themounteverest.ca Ta ke-out ordersof$20 or more beforetax,when payingwithCASH!R E C E I V E 10%O F F 611 Kingston Rd.W.

He was escort- ing one of the teens away when he was punched in the head and knocked uncon- scious. Witnesses told cops the assailant helped the victim back to his feet before getting into a black Chevrolet Cobalt and leaving. The suspect is a white man in his early 20s, about five feet 10, with a slim build, facial hair and a tattoo on his upper right arm. He left in a black Cobalt with red tape on the windshield.

VOTING RUNS FROM SEPTEMBER 15Th -25Th 2016 R E adERS’ChOICE awa RdS 20 1 6 READE RS’C H OICEA W A RD NOMINEE ‘We’re not going to get the money back’ BY JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- A Durham police fraud inves- tigator is sounding an alarm about the ongoing targeting of residents by scam art- ists. In spite of repeated warnings from police, people continue to be taken in by fraud art- ists, Detective Pat Waters said. More trou- bling, he said, is that those responsible for the phone scams are often targeting seniors. “We have had some heartbreaking calls from seniors,” he said. “They feel so per- sonally violated that this has happens to them.” Over the past couple of years police have issued repeated warnings about phone scams. There are a number of variations, but all are aimed at conning victims and bilking them of funds. One of the most prevalent of late has been dubbed the CRA scam; a caller claiming to represent the Canada Revenue Agency cold-calls victims and informs them they owe money to the tax man, then threatens the target with arrest if the arrears aren’t paid immediately. The latest twist on the scam is the pre- ferred method of payment: victims are often instructed to buy iTunes cards, then call back with serial num-bers. The scammers, often suspect- ed to be based offshore, use that data to cash in, police say. Another scam making the rounds involves some- one calling and claiming to rep- resent the victim’s bank. The victim is informed there’s been suspicious activ- ity involving their account, and instructed to withdraw money and send it to the so- called investigator via wire transfer. As far-fetched as these pitches are, they’re effective, said Waters. That’s because the criminals catch victims off guard, and bol- ster their facade by reciting personal infor- mation they’ve been able to compile. “The people on the other end of the line are extremely skilled at what they do. They have a lot of information on the people they target,” Waters said. “They’ve had time to refine their approach, and they practise it all the time.” The CRA scam has been a windfall for fraudsters, Waters said. Durham Region residents have fallen for it, and in some cases the criminals keep on targeting the same victim -- in one instance, a victim shelled out $32,000 for iTunes cards. And once that money’s paid out, it’s gone, Waters said. There’s virtually no way to trace and retrieve the lost funds. “We’re not going to get the money back,” he said. Waters is urging residents to be on the lookout for scams and, just as important, to talk to older relatives who may not be aware that they’re in the sights of foreign fraudsters. “They are purposely targeting seniors,” he said. “And if they get you once, they’ll come back. They re-victimize people, and they won’t stop.” If you think you’ve been targeted for fraud, call the major fraud unit at 905- 579-1520, extension 5230. Fraud artists continue to target Durham residents, police say Careless driving charge laid in Durham crash that sent two to hospital SCUGOG -- A driver has been charged in a crash Tuesday in Scugog Township that sent two motorcycle riders to hospital with serious injuries. A man was airlifted to a Toronto trau- ma centre following the collision, on Sim- coe Street near Old Simcoe Road at about 12:25 p.m. Sept. 20, Durham police said. A 54-year-old Oshawa man was riding a motorcycle northbound with a female passenger when a Hyundai vehicle pulled out of a private drive into the path of the bike, police said. An Ornge air ambulance landed at near- by Purple Woods Conservation Area. The motorcycle driver was airlifted to hospital with serious but not life-threatening inju- ries while his passenger, 51, was transport- ed to local hospital, police said. The driver of the car wasn’t injured. Dwight Moase, 22, of Close Avenue in Toronto, is charged with careless driving. The roadway remained closed for about three hours as police investigated the crash.

Some had feared the worst and who could blame them? With no new product scheduled to be built in either of Oshawa’s two assembly plants the end appeared near for GM and with it thousands of local jobs. But Unifor national president Jerry Dias wasn’t going to let that happen without a fight and the union targeted GM in its first round of contract negotiations. It was a gamble and fortunately for all involved it paid off. A deal got done with a commit- ment to Oshawa in the “hundreds of mil- lions of dollars,” Dias said. “Therefore our fear of a closure in 2019 is now over,” he said. “The facility clearly has a bright future.” Without knowing the fine details of the tentative contract Unifor members appear to be big winners in the round of talks. But much credit must also be given to GM. Closing down operations in Oshawa would not, of course, have been benefi- cial to the auto giant. Adding and enhanc- ing work here in Canada also enhances its automotive footprint in North Amer- ica. GM Canada has set itself up well for the future building quality and innovat- ed products where excellence is not just expected but exceeded. GM officials said they will be working with the government on potential sup- port and further details on the investment will be provided at the appropriate time. The Province of Ontario and the Govern- ment of Canada have stepped up in the past to help GM and we’re sure they can be counted on again to do the same. It’s in everyones’ best interests that automo- tive jobs remain in Oshawa, St. Catharines and Woodstock. Full-time jobs with ben- efits are a rare commodity these days in an era of part-time, temporary and contract work. “The agreement will enable significant new product, technology and process investments at GM’s Oshawa, St. Cath- arines and Woodstock facilities, plac- ing those operations at the forefront of advanced manufacturing flexibility, inno- vation and environmental sustainability,” said the company through corporate com- munications manager Jennifer Wright. Monday was a good day for the auto- motive industry in Durham Region. With Sunday’s ratification vote coming up fast we hope there’s even more reason for optimism next Monday, the day after the vote. Once the new contract is ratified Uni- for can move on to its second round of automotive talks either with Ford or Fiat Chrysler. In pattern bargaining the union chooses a target among the three auto- makers to focus bargaining on and then uses the same pattern to sign deals with the other two automakers. What has been accomplished with GM should set up successful talks with Ford and Fiat Chrysler. We wish them much success in their collective bargaining. Automotive future looks bright for GM in Durham Region Overwhelmed by television Lately, I yearn for the simple tele- vision choices of my youth. The Flintstones at lunch, maybe a little RocketShip Seven after school if there was no homework to be done. The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Hour just before dinner on Saturdays. Disney on Sundays. As I got a little older and was able to stay up a little later, maybe, if he had a good one on, a clas- sic movie with Elwy Yost on a Saturday night. That seemed like plenty. What did we know? We had no idea what ‘plenty’ could mean. These days I am awash in program- ming. I don’t even have cable but there is still too much. And, am I imagining it, or are they all kind of the same? “What about this one?” I offer, “It’s about a group of very attractive doc- tors dealing with life and death issues and having a lot of sex with each other.” “Oh, here’s one I don’t think we’ve tried ... it’s about a bunch of very attractive cops, dealing with life and death issues and having a lot of sex with each other.” “How about a group of very attractive lawyers, dealing with life or death issues and ... never mind”. It’s overwhelming. There are too many and too much of the same. I find myself slipping into a kind of streaming catatonia. I grumpily toss the remote to Kathryn with a plaintive “Here ... you pick some- thing.” She throws it back with an equally exasperated, “No, you do it.” We sit there for a moment or two, one of us eventually picking the dreaded thing up and going through a final, des- ultory scroll. Still nothing. We look at each other. “You want to read?” “Yeah. Good idea.” And, relieved, we pick up our books. This scenario repeats itself nightly. Thank God for books. Books are easy. Books are like old friends. Coming back to a book is like picking up on a very interesting conversation you’ve been having with someone who is terribly engaging, very patient and a fabulous listener. The TV used to be more of a friend. Back in the day. With only four or five channels you could get to know the TV pretty well. And you could watch it or not watch it. It didn’t care and you didn’t care. You weren’t paying for it so it was no biggie. Not anymore. Now the TV is an unruly mob of strangers at your door, with more arriving daily, all of them with their fingers in your pockets, stri- dently shouting ‘Pick me! Pick me!’ It’s exhausting.

Investigator finds major portions of December 2015 and January 2016 meetings should have been open Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Durham Regional council breached the open meetings requirement of the Municipal Act when it closed doors on matters that should have been discussed in public, an investigator has found. The closed meeting investigator from Amberley Gavel Ltd. found major portions of discussions in-camera on Dec. 22, 2015 and Jan. 27, 2016 that dealt with the Durham-York Ener- gy Centre should have been done in public. The investigator’s report was made public at the council meeting on Sept. 14. For the first meeting in question, council met as a commit- tee of the whole for a confidential verbal update on the accep- tance test on the incinerator. After this meeting, the Region announced the operator, Covanta, had not passed its accep- tance testing due to producing too much ash, failing to meet contractual requirements. Following the second closed-door meeting in question in January, councillors voted to revise the project agreement to increase the amount of ash allowed to be produced. This gave Covanta the green light to operate the incinerator at full capacity. Two people in February complained that the meetings should have been public, and Amberley was hired to investi- gate. “In our opinion, there were major portions of the discus- sions that could have, with good planning and careful man- agement of the flow of the meeting, been made public and transparent,” wrote Nigel Bellchamber for Amberley in his report. His report noted litigation privilege and solicitor/client priv- ilege -- exceptions that can be utilized to keep discussions closed under the Municipal Act -- were not valid reasons in the majority of this case. Matthew Gaskell, commissioner of corporate services, “was somewhat disappointed with the findings, but we understand their perspective, their opinion, and we’re going to learn from it and we’re going to move forward and do what we can to ensure as much as possible the proceedings of council are dealt with in open session.” In April, council approved a closed meeting protocol, which provides information regarding the statutory requirements and Regional procedures for council and committee meet- ings that are closed to the public, and outlines Municipal Act rules for closed meetings. Annual statistics regarding the Region’s closed meeting ses- sions will be provided through reports compiled by corporate services-legislative services. Council critic Linda Gasser, who filed one of the complaints and spoke before council, said before council on Sept. 14, “Overall, I think Amberley went real easy on Durham” and noted closed meetings should be recorded. However, Gaskell says the practice can keep discussions tight-lipped. “As a lawyer, our obligation is to advise our clients as best as we can and ensure that they understand the advice and that there’s fullsome discussion. That can be inhibited at times when a recording device is in play,” he said. Closed Durham discussions on incinerator should have been public: investigator Metroland file photo DURHAM -- Meetings that were closed to the pub- lic regarding the Durham York Energy Centre, above, should have been conducted in public, said an investi- gator’s report. 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 • Se p t e m b e r 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 10 AP Most Canadians unaware of the link BY KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- We all know about the link between smoking and cancer, as well as sun exposure and skin cancer. Yet, fewer than one in three Canadians know that there’s a direct link between alco- hol and cancer. Dr. Katie Wright, a cancer researcher with the Canadian Cancer Society, said the orga- nization did a survey on alcohol and cancer and found “only 28 per cent knew alcohol caused cancer.” That doesn’t surprise Chris Arnott, a pub- lic health nurse with the Durham Region health department. “A lot of folks out there are unaware of the links,” Arnott said. She noted it’s no different than the links between tobacco use and cancer, or expo- sure to UV rays. “The more you drink, the greater the risk. One drink a day increases the risk of cancer. The safest choice is not to drink alcohol,” Arnott said. As little as one drink a day for a woman and two for a man could increase the risk, she added. The Region recently conducted a cam- paign called ‘What’s in your bottle?” with the aim to “increase awareness between links of consuming alcohol with cancer.” Moderate drinking includes no more than two standard drinks a day for a woman and up to 10 a week, while for a man it would be three drinks a day and up to 15 drinks per week. “It’s important for people to recognize what a standard drink is,” she said. A standard drink is a 341-ml (12-ounce) bottle of beer (five per cent alcohol), a 142- ml (five-oz.) glass of wine (12 per cent alco- hol) or 43 ml (1.5 oz.) of spirits or liquor (40 per cent alcohol). She noted there are seven types of cancer linked to alcohol consumption -- mouth, neck, throat, liver, colon, rectum and female breast. It doesn’t matter what type of alcohol is consumed, they all carry the same risk of cancer, Arnott added. Dr. Wright noted about 10,700 people were diagnosed with cancer related to alco- hol last year in Canada and cancer is in the top three leading causes of death world- wide. The most common types of cancer caused by alcohol use include the oral cavity, tho- rax, larynx, esophagus, colo-rectal, liver and, in women, breast. “It’s the way alcohol is metabolized in the body. Alcohol is ethanol and ethanol causes cancer. It damages DNA and it prevents the cells from repairing,” Dr. Wright said. In men, about 60 per cent of cancers are in the mouth, throat and esophagus, while in women, 60 per cent are in the breast. “It isn’t exactly known why. It may be how the body breaks down alcohol,” she said. “Research shows by decreasing alco- hol consumption to moderate levels, you decrease the risk,” Dr. Wright said. Arnott suggested having non-drinking days so “it doesn’t become a habit. At the end of the day, alcohol is not a benign sub- stance. It’s not without harm.” People should use alcohol “moderately and responsibly and recognize it does come with a health risk. It’s safest to say it’s dose dependent,” Arnott added. Family history also comes into play along with other risk factors, she said. It’s also gender related, with women at a greater risk of developing cancer, she noted. “Women metabolize alcohol different- ly,” she said, adding women have fewer enzymes needed to break down alcohol. “There’s greater blood alcohol in the blood stream. Women have less water in their system. Smaller stature, less water, no enzymes, it increases the risk of harm,” Arnott said. Dr. Wright agreed, saying alcohol affects women more than men, partly because women are smaller in stature than men. “It does have to do with size. It’s why women have smaller limits than men.” Surveys have shown that 51 per cent of adults in Durham exceed the guidelines of no more than two drinks a day for a woman and three a day for a man. Twenty per cent of residents would qualify as heavy drinkers, and that’s more than four drinks a day for a woman and more than five a day for a man. “People aren’t aware of the guidelines,” Arnott said. According to the Canadian Cancer Soci- ety, drinking about 3.5 drinks a day can double or even triple the risk of developing cancer of the mouth, pharynx, larynx and esophagus. Drinking about 3.5 drinks a day can increase the risk of developing cancer of the colon and rectum, and breast by 1.5 times. “We want to get the word out. Alcohol can cause cancer and two-thirds of people would reduce their consumption if they knew,” Dr. Wright said.

Instead, organizers of the Wounded War- riors Canada Highway of Heroes Bike Ride are hoping to, at the very least, capture the spirit of those unforgettable occasions dur- ing this weekend’s inaugural ride. About 150 participants will embark on the 220-kilo- metre, two-day ride, which begins on Satur- day, Sept. 24 at the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial in Trenton and continues along the Highway of Heroes with a few stops -- including at the Park of Reflection in Whitby for a brief ceremony -- before wrapping up at the Ontario Veterans War Memorial at Queen’s Park the following day. “We want people to come out, as they did when there was a repatriation, to come out and show their support,” says Scott Maxwell, executive director of Wounded Warriors. The Whitby-based non-profit organiza- tion honours and supports Canada’s ill and injured Canadian Armed Forces members, veterans, first responders and their fami- lies through various programs and services, particularly focused on mental health issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder. “People always ask us how they can get involved, given that we’re a national char- ity headquartered in Whitby and Durham Region,” says Maxwell. “So this is a great opportunity for the com- munity to come out to the Park of Reflec- tion for the service and then make their way down Brock Street to wave and encourage the riders on their journey to honour the fall- en and help the living.” As was the case for the Wounded Warriors Canada Battlefield Bike Ride, which took a group of Canadian riders overseas in 2014, 2015 and this past June to cycle through the Canadian battlefields, the mission of the Highway of Heroes Bike Ride is twofold. Both events aim to remember the fallen heroes of Canada while at the same time raise funds and awareness for ill and injured service men and women. “Awareness and fundraising really are the (main) things that we always try to accom- plish through these events,” says Maxwell, adding that the recent Battlefield ride raised $400,000 and the goal for the Highway of Heroes ride is to raise $200,000. “Our bike rides have become our signature fundraising activity and the monies raised go directly into our mental health programs that we fund nationally.” Between 2001 and 2014, more than 40,000 Canadian Armed Forces members served in Afghanistan. When the mission ended, 158 had been killed and thousands of others were physically and/or mentally injured as a result of these operations. In 2007, the stretch of Hwy. 401 from Canadian Forces Base Trenton to the Don Valley Parkway (and later Keele Street) in Toronto was named the Highway of Heroes to reflect its use as the route for repatriation convoys carrying fallen Canadian Forces service men and women from CFB Trenton to the coroner’s office in Toronto. Thousands of Durham residents lined local bridges along Hwy. 401 to watch the proces- sions pass. One of the bridges prominently featured in this tradition was on Brock Street South in Whitby. Droves of people, proudly waving their flags in a sea of red and white, gathered there to welcome the motorcade carrying the soldiers’ bodies. Maxwell says they’re hoping to recreate that sense of unity in the community as the riders leave the Park of Reflection on Day 2 of the ride and roll down Brock Street. First responders, including fire, police, and EMS, will be positioned at the bridge -- just as they were for the repatriations. “(It’s that) sense that the community cares,” he says. “That Canada cares about the service and sacrifice of our Canadian Armed Forces members and their families and as well, those that are out there trying to keep their memories alive and raise funds in sup- port of those living with operational stress injuries like PTSD.” Members of the public are encouraged to attend a ceremony and service on Sunday, Sept. 25 at 10 a.m. at the Park of Reflection, located at Cullen Central Park, 300 Taunton Rd. W., Whitby. Riders will make their way down Brock Street after the ceremony, arriv- ing at the bridge around 11 a.m. Visit www. highwayofheroesride.com for more informa- tion or to donate to the cause.

SENIORS NIGHT DURHAM -- A tradition of raising funds for much-needed hospital equipment continues this fall with the 2016 edition of the Bevy of Hope Breast Cancer Founda- tion’s annual raffle. The Bevy of Baskets promotion will see more than 20 baskets, each with a unique theme, on display at stores and malls throughout the region for the next month and a half, with the final draw planned for Nov. 2, organizer Gail Snyders said. Over the years, the volunteer organiza- tion has raised tens of thousands of dol- lars to fulfill the needs of hospitals in and around Durham Region. The hospitals identify a “wish list” of equipment and technology to help treat breast cancer patients, Snyders said. Technology is constantly changing and evolving, she said. “We say, let us know what your need is,” said Snyders. “We like to buy the newest technology for breast cancer treatment.” More than 100 volunteers are involved in the effort, soliciting donations, assem- bling baskets and then conducting the raf- fle. Each item has a theme -- for instance, this year one basket features a computer tablet, another kitchenware, and there are baskets featuring appliances, jewelry and other items. Raffle tickets are $3 each or three for $5, and purchasers can specify which basket they’re interested in. “That’s the beauty of it,” Snyders said. “They get to pick which basket they’d like to win.” Here’s a list of locations at which the baskets will be on display in the coming days: • Sept. 22 to 24, Walmart in south Oshawa • Sept. 26 to 28, Walmart in Whitby • Sept. 29 to Oct. 2, Pickering Town Cen- tre • Oct. 5 to 7, Loblaws Marketplace on Liverpool Road, Pickering • Oct. 12, Lakeridge Hospital, Oshawa • Oct. 13 to 15, Walmart in north Oshawa • Oct. 18 to 20, Walmart in Ajax • Oct. 21 to 23, the Craft Show at Durham College • Oct. 27 to 30, Pickering Town Centre.

Monarch Watch, a non-profit educa- tion, conservation, and research program, focuses on the monarch butterfly and its habitat. The species within the City’s certified gardens were carefully chosen to ensure they support butterflies in each of their life stages, from nectar plants to feed on, to host plants to lay eggs on. “It is important to increase action and awareness to help this species, which has significantly declined over the past 20 years,” said Mayor Dave Ryan. “As polli- nators, they play an intrinsic role in the health of our environment and communi- ty, and through our Sustainable Pickering program, we’ve developed and imple- mented a number of initiatives to assist not only the monarch butterfly, but also other pollinators.” Mayor Ryan took the National Wildlife Federation’s Mayor’s Monarch Pledge ear- lier this summer. It encourages mayors in North America to take at least three actions in one year to address issues that contrib- ute to the loss of this species. Other City-created Monarch waystations, as they are referred to, in Pickering include Ernie L. Stroud Park and Amberlea Park. Each location is maintained in partnership with a community group or school. These sites serve to educate the public, and make residents aware of the types of species they too could plant in their own gardens to help not only monarch butter- flies, but all pollinators.

Living right here in Durham Region, within driving distance of the great, dra- matic Canadian Shield, with all its lakes and rivers. So lucky to have a canoe and know what to do with it. Because of car troubles and time crunches, we almost didn’t get out there this summer. But when my husband and I finally climbed aboard and started paddling up a little chain of lakes this week, I was instantly surrounded by things I love and take delight in. The smell of lake water. The scent of pines. Floating mats of lily pads, with a few pristine, pointy waterlilies still blooming. And whirligig beetles! Rafts of them skating crazily as our canoe glided by. I realized with a shock that I hadn’t seen a single whirli- gig all summer until then -- and what a shame that was. Setting out behind a cold front, we expected stiff northwest winds, but they were dropping as the winding stream we put in on widened into a lake. And by the time we’d found a campsite, set up the tent and cooked supper, the lake was flattening out into a sheet of silver. Without waves lapping on rocks or wind rustling leaves, the world settled into a profound and beautiful silence -- something else I suddenly real- ized I had missed. With the packs strung up in a white pine, and the gear tucked away, we sat out on our mas- sive ‘kitchen’ rock and watched the sun sink behind the pines and oaks on the far shore, a few wispy clouds turn pink, the first stars come out. Around twilight, a barred owl broke the stillness with its ‘who cooks for you?’ call, answered by another far down the lake. A few whip-poor-wills sang back and forth before we made our way into the tent for a sound night’s sleep. Mist on the lake and perfect reflections. Sandhill cranes, wood ducks, frogs and dragon- flies -- the next days were filled with incredibly special moments. I’ve found in years past I need at least a week out in nature to start really unwinding, and three weeks canoeing is ideal. But after just three days out there, I felt transformed. Canoe trips are a good ‘fix’ for the nervous system. An infusion of peace, to get you through the rest of the year. If it wasn’t for winter, work deadlines and social commitments, I could have stayed out there happily for the rest of my life.

Duffin Meadows Cemetery 2505BrockRoad,Pickering 905-427-3385 Not-Yet.ca/livemore The Great Outdoors Margaret Carney OSHAWA -- Police are try- ing to identify a suspect who approached and touched two young children last Friday in Oshawa. Investigators are appealing to residents in the vicinity of Grandview Street North and Beatrice Street to check surveil- lance data for images of the sus- pect, who rode a bicycle, Dur- ham police said. The incident occurred some- time between 4:30 and 7 p.m. Sept. 16. Police said a five-year- old girl told her parents she and a friend had been play- ing in a school yard at Grand- view and Beatrice when they were approached by a man who asked if they wanted to play a game. During the interac- tion, the man inappropriately touched both children, police said. He was last seen riding his bicycle east on Beatrice. The child reported the inci- dent Sept. 17. It occurred just out of view of the parents, police said. The suspect is a brown- skinned man with dark spots on his face who wore a sleeveless shirt with an image of a basket- ball on it, and black shorts. His bicycle was blue with stripes. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 905-579- 1520, extension 5341 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Bystanders disarm man who pulled sawed-off shotgun on Durham street OSHAWA -- A civilian disarmed a man who was threatening people with a sawed-off shotgun Tuesday night in Oshawa. One man has been charged in the incident, which occurred in the area of Drew Street and Etna Avenue at about 9:30 p.m. Sept. 13. Durham police said a suspect, who was walking along Drew Street with another man, shouted at peo- ple to stop staring at him before pulling the gun on a bystander. That person grabbed hold of the gun and, with the assistance of four other witnesses, disarmed the suspect and held him until officers arrived, police said. Cops recovered an unloaded sawed-off shotgun at the scene. Ishmail Baker, 20, of Wilson Road North in Oshawa faces a dozen charges including pointing a fire- arm, uttering threats, and posses- sion of a prohibited weapon. Police are still trying to iden- tify the second male, who left the scene before the physical confron- tation. Durham police seek man who approached, touched young children Former Ajax man wanted on fraud charges in Durham, arrested in Vancouver DURHAM -- A former Ajax resident accused of defrauding investors of thousands of dollars was arrest- ed as he returned to Canada on Labour Day, police said. In November of 2015 Durham police issued an arrest warrant for Oren Anthony Callender, who was wanted on multiple counts of fraud relating to transactions here between 2008 and 2013. Police alleged Callender, who claimed to be an officer of Nero Financial Inc. and KMOS Group Inc. defrauded six different vic- tims, all of whom invested more than $20,000 after being promised they’d double their money within six months. Callender, 44, was arrested Sept. 5 in Vancouver and has been returned to Durham Region, where he remains in custody, police said. He’s charged with seven counts of fraud over $5,000. Police are appealing for anyone who’s had dealings with the suspect to contact the fraud unit at 905-579- 1520, ext. 5353. 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 • Se p t e m b e r 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 15 AP $$$$ C O N S T R U C T I O N S A L E C A U T I O N !

S hoP T hebay.com Kellie Leitch and Canada’s values Federal Conservative lead- er hopeful Kellie Leitch has entered the political arena, stir- ring the pot. Leitch proposes that immi- grants be screened with a test to determine if they hold any values that are anti-Canadian. I can hear the indignation now, saying “What an intolerant sug- gestion!” Is it intolerant when passengers are required to go through security before they board a plane? No? Well, it’s the same difference. Knowing what someone has in their carry-on of values before they’re granted permission to live in Canada is acceptable. But it can easily be portrayed negatively or abused depend- ing upon the motive and how it’s handled. This is a great discussion to have because while race, gen- der and ability don’t matter for gaining entrance, values should. Some believe that if you attempt to engage these issues you must have an “us versus them mental- ity”. And the thought is if this is Canada the tolerant and Canada the inclusive, there is no room for engaging such nonsense. But what’s wrong with discuss- ing the values of Canadians and if those coming to Canada are in agreement with those values? The real question, though, is what are Canada’s values? When listening to Prime Min- ister Justin Trudeau, it sounds as though we’re in favour of so many things that there isn’t any- thing we’re against and of course having values requires being both for and against things and not just having it implied but clearly stated. Are we in favour of honour killings? Are we in favour of Sharia law? Are we fine with those who don’t accept same-sex rights because of their own convictions or religion? We’re into some troubled waters now, but Leitch didn’t trouble them. They were trou- bled just from not being clearly defined and then adding to the mix an ever-increasing welcome wagon. Any time Conservatives at any level of government decide to wade into controver- sial waters, they usually receive a knockout punch. But former prime minister Stephen Harper was such a large figure, that those coming out of his shadow will have to set a decided tone that is conservatively for Canada and for people while being against certain things. Having both is possible. A values test will really be about Canada -- defining who we are and what we stand for and that should mean a red light for some. -- Renae Jarrett lives in Durham, loves Canada and is a communicator of truth.

There was no report of injuries in the inci- dent, at about 11:30 p.m. Sept. 16 in Whitby. The incident was one of a dozen impaired driving investigations during the weekend, police said. The incident began when a citizen called 911 to report a suspected impaired driver at the wheel of a Ford Mustang being driven erratically on Thickson Road South, police said. An officer found the vehicle parked on Nichol Avenue, with the driver apparently asleep, police said. When the cop knocked on the window, the driver awoke and immediately drove forward, slamming into a cruiser that was parked in front of his car, police said. A quantity of drugs was seized from the car. Khizar Bilal, 34, of Dakin Drive in Ajax, is charged with driving while impaired by a drug, possession of cocaine and driving while under suspension. The incident comes at a time when cops in Durham are dealing with what appears to be a spike in impaired driving incidents. Friday’s arrest was one of 12 impaired investigations by Durham police between Friday and Sunday. So far this year there have been 611 impaired driving incidents, compared to 498 at the same period last year, police said. 416.285.4447 2300 Lawrence Ave.E.Unit 30 Scarborough,ON M1P 2R2 OEM and aftermarket automotive parts at discount prices! 905.471.4447 7025 Markham Rd.Unit 5 Markham,ON. 905.294.5773 15 Heritage Rd.Unit 14 Markham,ON. **up to 5L of oil and filter worth up to $5. *2 year Warranty *value must be equal *2*2 year Warranty ices!

Ce n t r e f o r Bilingual services now availableCentre For Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, in Ajax Dr. David Direnfeld, Psychologist 905.427.2007 NC) Experts say wearing ill-fitting and inap- propriate footwear during childhood and ado- lescence can lead to long-term foot pain and mobility problems. This is why the founda- tion for a healthy, active life begins with your child’s shoes. “People mistakenly think a child’s foot is a mini version of an adult’s foot,” says Kevin Fraser, president of the Pedorthic Associa- tion of Canada and a Canadian certified pe- dorthist. “However, as children’s feet are still developing, special care to reduce injury and improve function can be beneficial.” He recommends keeping a close eye on your children’s feet and being extra vigi- lant with foot care if they are very active in sports or dance or experience rapid growth or significant weight gain, as these can have a significant impact on growing feet. However, don’t be too alarmed if you notice something concerning in your child’s feet, as it’s likely just normal growth and development. If the concern persists, book an appointment with a foot expert to determine if a change in foot- wear or a foot orthotic is required. Use these seven expert tips to help keep your child’s feet healthy: 1. Keep their feet clean and toe nails trimmed. This basic care can prevent injuries. 2. Shoes that are too small can cause pain and developmental problems so have the length and width of your child’s feet mea- sured every three to six months. 3. Running shoes are best for school. Flim- sy, slip-on flats, moccasins, and sheepskin- style boots will not give your child’s feet the support they require. 4. If your child participates regularly in a sport, make sure you buy shoes specifically designed for that activity. 5. Turn your child’s shoes over and look at the tread wear — if you notice uneven or localized wear, book a consultation with a Ca- nadian Certified Pedorthist. 6. Don’t pass shoes from sibling to sibling. Although it’s tempting to hand down lightly worn shoes, the wear patterns of the first child will be different than the second child’s. 7. If your normally active kid isn’t running around or participating in their regular activi- ties, seek professional advice.

Advertising Feature FOCUS ON BUSINESS PickeringAjax/ The Big M originally opened in 1965, and seven years ago Chris Papatheodorou reopened the drive-in style joint. He is proud to be continuing his father Ted’s tradition of offering delicious, original recipe, award winning homemade hamburgers. The restaurant’s blueprint for a better burger includes a toasted soft bun (that are delivered fresh daily), a seven ounce freshly grilled beef patty, topped with crisp iceberg lettuce, sliced beefsteak tomato, a slice of red onion, pickles, ketchup and yellow mustard. To make your burger even better, you can add on cheddar cheese, Canadian bacon and/or peameal bacon. Customers also love their famous steak on a Kaiser, homemade onion rings, French fries, sweet potato fries, homemade chicken souvlaki and The Big M chicken Caesar salad as well as the tasty Greek salad. While you are here, you can also enjoy one of the signature milkshakes, a soft ice cream cone or a sundae. When you visit The Big M, it’s like taking a trip back in time. The restaurant offers an authentic 60’s vibe. The combination of great food and outstanding customer service will have your coming back time and time again. “We pride ourselves on our 50 plus year tradition of serving the Bay Ridges area, which is why we’ve gone back to the restaurant’s original feel,” Chris says. “We offer high quality food and a good time – plus, you can’t get a better hamburger or steak on a Kaiser anywhere else.” It’s no surprise that that the restaurant was voted in as number one hamburger in Ajax and Pickering. Drop by or drive up to The Big M at 711 Krosno Blvd. (at Liverpool Road, south of the 401) in Pickering for an incredible dining experience.

A Panto From Neverland! also on 2016/2017 schedule OSHAWA -- The Dancyn Productions The- atre Company is kicking off a new season with a play that was a favourite last sea- son. The Oshawa-based group begins with Tuesdays With Morrie, running Sept. 29 to Oct. 15. Once again, Tamer Higazi plays Mitch Albom and Ross Libbey is Morrie Schwartz. “Due to the great reviews we received from patrons who attended our original 2015 production, I have decided to bring this beautiful story back to Durham Region,” states Dancyn artistic direc- tor Joan Mansfield. “It’s an emotional play, filled with laughter, happiness, cry- ing and sadness. But, most important- ly, there are many life lessons one can take away from this show, and you can cherish these lessons for many years to come.” The season continues with another favourite, just in time for Halloween: The Rocky Horror Show features many cast members from the 2013 production at Oshawa’s Regent Theatre. It’s staged Oct. 27 to 30, a co-production with Linda Lyons and Reese Brunelle of Whitby Courthouse Theatre, which also staged the musical. The final show of the calendar year is Peter Pan! A Panto From Neverland!, Nov. 25 to Dec. 3, which Mansfield states features “a zany cast of characters that everyone knows and loves -- the perfect holiday musical for the young and the young at heart.” The first production of the new year is The Train Driver, Feb. 16 to 26, and the Dancyn season ends with the musical Next To Normal, May 4 to 14. The shows are staged at The Dancyn Theatre, 681 Dnipro Blvd., Oshawa. Visit www.dancynproductions.com or call 289-988-2040 for more information and tickets. ON CA 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 • Se p t e m b e r 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 30 AP SP O R T S Plantar fasciitis pain is common Plantar fasciitis is a common problem in athletes both young and old, as well as those in the general population who are on their feet for long periods of time. Plantar fasciitis is characterized by pain at the bottom of the heel that is exacer- bated by bodily loading. Symptoms are almost always most severe during the first few steps in the morning getting out of bed. Pain is the result of straining the inser- tion of the dense network of tissue, known as fascia, extending from the toes into the heel bone. This structure helps support the longitudinal arch in our foot. Straining of the plantar fascia causes small micro-tears of the tissue attach- ment to the heel, and these tears cause pain. There are many risk factors and pos- sible causes of plantar fasciitis. Some include rolling inward of the foot dur- ing gait (pronation), tight Achilles ten- don and calf muscles, having either high arches or flat feet, wearing shoes that are worn out, walking, standing or running on hard surfaces for long periods, and being overweight. There are a few ways to avoid get- ting plantar fasciitis. Wearing proper footwear that gives enough cushion- ing depending on your daily routine is important. Also, having the proper amount of arch support can be preventa- tive, but it is important to have the prop- er support for your foot type. Stretching after activity or long days on your feet is also a great way to prevent the calf, Achilles and foot musculature from over-tightening. If you suspect you have plantar fasciitis it is best to consult with a qualified health professional to assess and diagnose the severity of the injury. With cases of mild to moderately severe plantar fasciitis, the foot will be treated with rest from activ- ity for a period of time, anti-inflamma- tory methods, manual muscle release techniques, footwear and arch support assessment and prescribing specific stretching. Depending on the severity of the inju- ry, the demands of the person’s daily liv- ing with work and activity, and the com- pliance to care will determine how long it takes for recovery. Some cases resolve quickly, however other cases can take a few weeks to recover. Dr. Andrew Fagan is a licensed chiropractor, kinesiologist and clinical acupuncture provider.

Dr. Andrew Fagan Guest columnist Oshawa Generals begin anniversary season Friday in Sudbury BY BRIAN McNAIR bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA — Fans of the Oshawa Generals will have to show some patience before getting a glimpse of the new video score- board at the General Motors Centre, not to mention the product on the ice for the team’s 80th anniversary season. The Generals will begin the season with three straight road games, includ- ing in Sudbury Friday, Sept. 23 to begin the 2016-17 Ontario Hockey League cam- paign, before debuting at home the fol- lowing Friday at 7:35 p.m. against the Peterborough Petes. It’s a significant year for the Generals, who have submitted their intention to bid on the 2018 Memorial Cup, the 100th anniversary of the junior national cham- pionship tournament. The state-of-the- art scoreboard should help in that regard, but more important will be the team’s performance, which is expected to be vastly improved from a year ago. Coming off a 2015 Memorial Cup cham- pionship, the team was gutted during a rebuilding year last season, but still man- aged to make it into the playoffs, albeit for just five games. With almost every key player from last season expected back, things should be far different this time around. “Last year obviously was a transition year for the organization and it was a credit to the players that they battled and stuck with it, and we achieved our goal to make the playoffs,” said Bob Jones, who’s entering his second season as head coach of the club. “This year, obviously expecta- tions will be a lot higher, but I think you’ve got to be logical with what our goals are. We haven’t set them in place yet, but cer- tainly our depth is going to help us.” The core of the team, captain Anthony Cirelli, defenceman Mitchell Vande Som- pel and goalie Jeremy Brodeur, will be key to the success this season, but given that all will likely be gone a year from now, the development of the many younger play- ers will be even more important. It was with that in mind that general manager Roger Hunt traded away veter- an centre Sam Harding to ensure appro- priate playing time for rookie forwards Danil Antropov, Serron Noel and Renars Krastenbergs as well as sophomores Jack Studnicka, Robbie Burt, Kyle MacLean and Sullivan Sparkes. “We have a lot of guys returning so we’re hoping to be a top team in our conference and I think we can be,” said MacLean, who has added nearly 30 pounds after a rookie season that saw him put up 4-5-9 stats in 47 games. “Being more mature, all of us, we have a year under our belt, so whether it be point production or big- ger roles on the team, more minutes, we’ll definitely have higher expectations. We’re hoping to be a top team in the conference and make a difference this year.” Antropov, the sixth overall pick in the 2016 OHL draft, will be the youngest play- er in the league this season, with a birth- date of Dec. 20, 2000, but says he felt he continually improved throughout the team’s training camp. “As the camp went along I felt like I got more comfortable. I feel like every time on the ice, it’s kind of a stepping stone to becoming a better player at this level,” he said, adding he’s excited to be part of such an historic season. “It’s obviously a special moment and year for this team and I’m really glad and thrilled to be a part of it.” The Generals’ blue-line offers a nice mix of veterans and newcomers, with Vande Sompel expected to be the star attraction, but Riley Stillman looking to take an even bigger step forward after improving to the point last season of being drafted by the Florida Panthers in the fourth round. Stillman, who like Antropov, MacLean and Brodeur is the son of a former NHL player, has a greater appreciation for the Generals’ history than most, as his uncle Sean Stefanski and grandfather Bud Ste- fanski both played for the team. “The 80th year is special for me in the sense that it puts me alongside them, so it’s to remember them and remember the guys who played before us,” he said. “It’s really special and I’m looking forward to starting it off.” In goal, Brodeur returns as an overag- er after a solid year as the No. 1, but will likely be pushed for playing time with the acquisition of Kyle Keyser from the Flint Firebirds, expected to be a key cog in the Memorial Cup bid. 80 years and counting Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland OSHAWA -- Goalie Jeremy Brodeur will lead the Oshawa Generals into their 80th anniversary season this weekend, beginning Friday in Sudbury. The Generals head from Sudbury to Sault Ste. Marie on Sept. 24 and play in Peterborough Sept. 28 before hosting a pair of games next weekend, Friday, Sept. 30 at 7:35 p.m. against the Petes and Sunday, Oct. 2 at 6:05 p.m. against the Windsor Spitfires ... The Generals will retire Marc Savard’s No. 27 prior to the Oct. 2 game. A two-time OHL champion, Savard will join Red Tilson, Bobby Orr, Eric Lindros and John Tavares in having his number retired, the fifth in franchise history ... Anthony Cirelli (Tampa Bay), Mitchell Vande Sompel (New York Islanders), Riley Stillman (Florida), Domenic Com- misso (Boston), Sean Allen (St. Louis) and Jeremy Brodeur (Columbus) were invited to NHL camps, but could all be returned in time to start the season ... The Generals have trimmed the ros- ter to 13 forwards, eight defence and three goalies by sending Matt Latin and Brock Welsh to the Tier 2 affiliate Whitby Fury. GM Roger Hunt is also looking for a home for overager Alex Renaud. Generally Speaking: News and notes as Ontario Hockey League season gets underway 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 • Se p t e m b e r 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 31 AP SportS Panthers, Fury headed in different directions Ontario Junior Hockey League in full swing DURHAM -- The Whitby Fury and Pickering Panthers are off to completely opposite starts in the Ontario Junior Hock- ey League season. Four games in to the Jr. A season for both clubs, the Fury have given away only a point, winning three and losing one in overtime, while the Panthers have gained just one from an overtime defeat in their opener. The Fury opened the season with vic- tories of 8-4 over Buffalo, 6-4 over Mil- ton and 7-2 over Newmarket, all at home, before falling 4-3 in extra time on the road to a strong Cobourg Cougars team Mon- day, Sept. 19. Nik Coric has led the way offensively with five goals and 13 points, which puts him second in league scoring, while Ryan Heeps (4-5-9), Scott Kirton (3-5-8) and Luke Keenan (2-6-8) are also off to quick starts. The depth of the Fury has been aided by getting forwards Matt Latin and Brock Welsh from their OHL affiliate, the Oshawa Generals. The Panthers, with a very young and inexperienced roster, managed to grab a point in a 5-4 season-opening loss to Stouffville, but have since lost by scores of 6-1 to Cobourg, 4-1 to Markham and 4-0 to Aurora, all on the road. Davis Teigen-Katsumi, a 17 year old from Pickering, leads the team with three goals and five points, while Russell Nowry, an Oshawa native acquired from Cobourg, has two goals and an assist. The Fury have home games Thursday, Sept. 22 against Georgetown at 7:40 p.m. and Sunday against Lindsay at 2:10 p.m. at the Iroquois Park Sports Centre. The Panthers, awaiting renovations to be completed at the Pickering Recreation Complex, play their first 10 games away from home, including in Trenton Friday, Sept. 23 against the powerhouse Golden Hawks. Both teams will play twice at the annu- al Governors Showcase early next week in Buffalo. ryan pfeiffer / Metroland Kicking for a cause AJAX -- Rachael MacFadyen passes the ball during the third annual Steve Turner memorial soccer tournament to raise awareness about mental health, at the Ajax Community Centre. First time UOIT has won both soccer games over Durham College OSHAWA — The UOIT Ridgebacks have become the first school to sweep the Campus Cup with a 2-1 victory by the men’s soccer team over Durham College on Wednesday, Sept. 14. Ridgebacks captain Erik Petrovic opened the scoring in the 11th minute of play in the 50-minute match. Durham College captain Bruce Cullen, of Pickering, answered in the 25th min- ute to take the game into the half tied 1-1. The Lords had a number of chanc- es to get the go-ahead goal in the second half, including a bullet from distance by Cullen that rang off the post in the 35th minute. With the friendly looking like it was going to penalty kicks it was Chris Jag- garnath, who entered the game in the second half, who put the Ridgebacks ahead 2-1 in the 48th minute. Dur- ham College goalkeeper Fisal Ayoubi, of Whitby, made a diving stop off a strike by Noah Antenucci, but could not control the rebound, which Jaggarnath buried for the game-winner. Late pressure in the dying seconds couldn’t do it for Durham as the Ridge- backs became the first school to sweep the Campus Cup with the win, first for the men’s team since 2012. The women’s game, played a week ear- lier, was a lopsided affair as the Ridge- backs were dominant in earning a 7-0 victory over their cross-campus rivals. Pickering’s Cassandra Sribny led UOIT with a pair of goals, while Alyssia Robi- chaud, Brooklin’s Sierra Simpson, Ajax’s Bria Dowson-Chance, Sara Voisin and Helen Frampton each scored once. Vic- toria Savage earned the shutout. It was the fourth straight women’s win for UOIT since Durham College took the inaugural game in 2012. The men’s game was to be played later that same night, but was postponed by a storm. Ridgebacks sweep Campus Cup from Lords Justin Greaves / Metroland OSHAWA – A flag runner for UOIT runs around the field at the half during the annual Campus Cup men’s soccer game between UOIT Ridgebacks and Durham College Lords. UOIT scored with five minutes left to defeat the Lords 2-1 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 • Se p t e m b e r 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 32 AP Call: 1-866-496-4031 Visit: triOSdurham.com Campus: 200 John St. W.
