Pickering resident
wins $75,000
on a whim
DURHAM -- A Pickering resident recently
laid off from his job is the winner of $75,000
after purchasing an OLG scratch ticket on
a whim.
“I had some spare change and decided to
pick up an INSTANT BEJEWELED scratch
ticket,” Angelo Bos-
carino said while at
the OLG Prize Cen-
tre in Toronto where
he picked up his
winnings. “Back at
my girlfriend’s place,
I scratched the tick-
et. I read the instruc-
tions on the back
and turned the tick-
et over again but I
still wasn’t convinced I had won.”
The 33-year-old construction worker
headed back to the store.
“I used the ticket checker and the prize
amount appeared on the screen,” he said.
“My girlfriend was with me and she started
to tear up. We left the store because I didn’t
want to attract any attention.”
Boscarino and his girlfriend returned
home.
“We were in a daze. Until I arrived at the
Prize Centre, it just didn’t feel real.”
The win comes at the perfect time for
Boscarino.
“I was recently laid off and my truck died
earlier this week,” he said. “I plan to save
a portion of my windfall and then buy a
new car. I also want to buy my girlfriend an
engagement ring.”
Boscarino bought the winning ticket at
New Town Variety on Yonge Street in New-
market.
Pickering planning
and development
committee will discuss
Infrastructure Ontario’s
plan to build subdivision
in the area
BY KRISTEN CALIS
kcalis@durhamregion.com
PICKERING -- Immediately north of the
hamlet of Whitevale, hikers, joggers, nature
lovers and locals enjoy the hills, trails and
meadows of a former gravel pit that has now
flourished as a living ecosystem.
But that could change as the large devel-
opment of Seaton in central Pickering takes
shape. The community is expected to attract
70,000 people and 35,000 jobs and has been
in the works since the 1970s.
Infrastructure Ontario, which manages
the provincially owned land, has submitted
a plan of subdivision to the City of Pickering.
The planning and development committee
will consider the application and a zoning
bylaw amendment at an upcoming meet-
ing.

they would like a section preserved as a natural park, and not developed.

Final decision on hospital
merger with Lakeridge
Health on dec. 1
BY JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Supporters of the Ajax-Pickering
Hospital gathered in front to the facility Satur-
day to express their opposition to a proposed
merger likened by one speaker to a “hostile
takeover” by the Lakeridge Health system.
“Our very existence is being threatened by
a hostile takeover by Lakeridge Oshawa,” said
Dr. Romas Stas, associate chief of staff and
medical director of complex continuing care,
as attendees at a noon rally applauded and
waved signs.
“They are not interested in co-operation,”
he warned. “They’re interested in domina-
tion.”
Speakers expressed fears that equipment
and programs that have been made possible
by community fundraising efforts could fall
under ownership of the Lakeridge system
should the amalgamation, which is under
consideration by provincial Health Minister
Eric Hoskins, proceed.
There’s also concern that the $18-million
price of the amalgamation will come at a cost
to frontline services, said Sara Labelle, a Lak-
eridge Health worker and a member of the
Ontario Health Coalition.
Labelle warned that merging Ajax-Picker-
ing with the Lakeridge system would place
additional stress on already-strained budgets
and human resources.
“At the end of the day, this is about protect-
ing services and keeping services in the com-
munity,” she said. “This hospital should be a
free-standing hospital.”
Labelle urged hospital supporters to make
their views on the proposed merger known to
the provincial government. The deadline for
written submissions to the health minister is
Nov. 14, with a final decision pending Dec. 1,
she said.
Lloyd Rang, senior director of communica-
tions with Lakeridge Health, said that rather
than depleting services, the proposed merger
will help to ensure their continuation at Ajax-
Pickering and throughout Durham.
“What I see is an opportunity to build a
regional system of acute care that really ben-
efits patients and families across the region,”
he said. “There’s a commitment to delivering
more services, not fewer.”
Rang added that Lakeridge, which has
turned in balanced budgets for the past six
years, has a plan to absorb the costs of amal-
gamation over three years.
“These are things we can do without
impacting patient care,” he said.
On the hot seat Saturday was local MPP Joe
Dickson, a Liberal, who expressed support
for the protest effort. “Everybody’s upset and
they should be upset -- I’m upset with you,”
said Dickson. "We don’t want ownership to
go east to Lakeridge.”
Dickson responded to hecklers by urging
them to check on the efforts he’s made to put
forward residents’ concerns at the legislature.
“Anybody who doesn’t think I’m doing any-
thing about it, come into Queen’s Park and
speak with me personally,” he said.
The merger is opposed by Ajax council,
said regional Councillor Colleen Jordan, who
attended the rally as an observer. There’s con-
cern Ajax-Pickering may be under-repre-
sented among directors in an expanded Lak-
eridge Health system, she said.
Jordan said residents, many of whom have
helped raise money for Ajax-Pickering hos-
pital, are concerned about funds and equip-
ment being diverted elsewhere in the region.
“We don’t want to see services diminished,”
she said. “We want to see services increased.”
Opponents of the merger are asking resi-
dents to make submissions to the Health
Ministry via communityfeedback@ontario.
ca.
Rang, the Lakeridge Health spokesman,
encouraged residents to check out details of
the merger proposal at the website ourhos-
pitals.ca. He said it’s encouraging that people
are taking such a keen interest in the future of
their hospital.
“People are passionate about their hospital,
which I think is fantastic,” he said.

Matthew Bell sentenced
after pleading guilty to sexual
exploitation of teen swimmer
BY JEFF MITCHELL
jmitchell@durhamregion.com
DURHAM -- Matthew Bell, former owner of the Ajax Swim
Club and at one time a rising star on the national swimming
scene, has been sentenced to seven months in jail for the
sexual exploitation of a teenaged athlete.
The sentence, delivered Monday, Nov. 7 in an Oshawa
courtroom, is the latest development in Bell’s fall from grace,
which began last year when the victim, now in her 20s,
reported the abuse to Durham police.
“He was not just a swim coach -- he was one of the best
anywhere,” Ontario Court Justice John Adamson noted.
Bell, 36, pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to sexual
exploitation and luring, charges relating to contact he had
with the victim in early 2011 when he was 30 and she was 16.
He admitted to two encounters during which sexual touch-
ing occurred, and to numerous sexually charged online con-
versations with the girl.
The relationship was a grievous breach of trust that Bell
knew was unethical and illegal, Justice Adamson noted.
“The man who was (the victim’s) coach and mentor was
exploiting her,” the judge said.
In Monday’s ruling Justice Adamson was mindful of the
impact the exploitation had on the victim, who described in
a statement the torment -- punctuated by thoughts of suicide
-- she’s endured.
“Nothing I do here will bring back (her) innocence,” the
judge said. “It sounds like much of the joy of her high school
and university years was devoured by this crime.”
Bell’s seven months in jail will be followed by two years of
probation. He’ll also be on the national sex offender registry
for life.
At the time of his arrest in November 2015, Bell was CEO
of Ajax Swimming. An accomplished coach, his past roles
with Swimming Canada included acting as a member of the
coaching staff at the 2015 FINA world junior championships.
Soon after his arrest, Swimming Canada announced it had
cut ties with him.
“Mr. Bell lost his avocation,” Justice Adamson said Mon-
day. “To acknowledge that it was thrown away must be gall-
ing indeed.”

The Whitevale Marsh Preservation Com-
mittee is asking for a compromise that
would benefit both current Pickering
residents and those moving into Seaton.
“Within this considerable develop-
ment, we are only asking for a small
fraction, two to three hectares, to be
left natural and managed for the enjoy-
ment of all,” the group wrote in a letter
to Ajax-Pickering MPP Joe Dickson and
other members of the provincial gov-
ernment.
IO spokeswoman Bianca Lankheit said
in an e-mail the gravel pit lands were
designated as ‘residential’ in the Cen-
tral Pickering Development Plan in May
2006.
“In addition to aligning with City
of Pickering’s Official Plan Amend-
ment and the Region of Durham’s Offi-
cial Plan, the plan of subdivision also
reflects the Ontario Municipal Board’s
approved land use, which was deter-
mined in March 2013,” she said.
Lankheit said developing these lands
will help create a work/live environment
that’s envisioned for Seaton.
But the Whitevale committee would
like to see a natural park that would
act as a transitional area between the
manicured urban parks planned for the
development and the existing Seaton
Trail, a popular spot located along the
West Duffins Creek in Pickering.
“We would like everybody to use the
park,” said longtime Whitevale resident
Brigitte Sopher. “We are trying to take
advantage of the feature that is already
there.”
They suggest the flat expanses of land
along North Road and north of the pit be
developed, and the lower areas leading
to the marsh be managed and enhanced
with native species and trail heads. The
residents are not opposing the elemen-
tary school planned for the area, and
feel the area could be beneficial to the
children for ecological studies and proj-
ects.
“With a little TLC you could really see
this thriving,” said Mary Evans, White-
vale resident.
The residents are looking for the City’s
support in the matter.
“I do think there is an opportunity for
the City of Pickering to get behind it,”
said Sopher.
Ward 3 Regional Councillor David
Pickles has met with the residents and
says there could be room to tweak the
plans to maintain more of the trails and
offer more connections, possibly a trail
head, with areas for parking.
“I don’t think it’s an all-or-nothing
proposition,” he said. “I hope maybe
the Province can scale back some of the
development plans to maintain some of
the trails.”
Coun. Pickles will sit down with Infra-
structure Ontario to discuss options.
“It’s a really pretty area and it would
be nice to preserve some of the trails,”
he said. “If we can preserve some of the
trails and provide more access to the
trails, they may be more willing to enter-
tain that idea.”
Coun. Pickles says the Whitevale
group’s suggestions will be discussed
when the application goes to the plan-
ning and development committee.
Whitevale residents urge City to preserve land for park

our opinion
The majority of Canadians live their
daily lives untouched by war or terror-
ism.
We are fortunate here in this country
as no world conflicts or a major terrorist
attack, such as the one witnessed in New
York City on 9/11, have taken place on
Canadian soil.
That’s not to say terrorist events have
not happened here at all. We turn our
thoughts to 2014 when Corporal Nathan
Cirillo was shot and killed by a lone ter-
rorist at the National War Memorial in
Ottawa, or when Warrant Officer Patrice
Vincent was killed by a similarly mis-
guided jihadist in Quebec when he was
killed in a hit and run. Those two attacks
frightened Canadians from coast-to-
coast and hardened our resolve to stamp
out terrorism across the world.
Canada has stood by our allies when
called upon, most recently through our
military mission in Afghanistan where
158 of Canada’s most courageous citi-
zens gave their lives fighting Taliban
oppression.
We should also not forget Canada’s
peacekeepers, and those deployed in the
interests of averting greater conflict in
recent decades. Those men and women
served Canada and indeed the whole
world by keeping the peace. Sounds sim-
ple enough but sometimes keeping two
sides from attacking one another is a lot
harder than letting them fight. But the
results are worth the sacrifice.
Is it any wonder Canada is viewed as a
destination of choice by refugees fleeing
war torn areas of the world? Peace is an
attractive feature for someone surround-
ed by hatred and war and who has only
seen conflict most of their lives. Canada
remains a nation that is open and wel-
coming, confident and friendly, a nation
that welcomes people from around the
globe to build more prosperous and
rewarding lives for themselves.
Indeed, Canada has much for which it
can and should be proud. We breathe life
into that pride and respect through our
remembrance of the fallen every Nov. 11.
Remembrance Day is a day where all
Canadians get an opportunity to pay trib-
ute to all those who have fallen for their
country. Wear your poppy prominently
and proudly, observe a sombre moment
of silence, take part in some of the cer-
emonies offered in your community at
local cenotaphs, acknowledge the pres-
ence of local veterans, and keep a warm
thought for the men and women who
have put their country’s interests ahead
of their own self-interest when duty
called.
Nov. 11 holds deep meaning for Cana-
dians, as it should. Let us all celebrate the
lives of those who gave the ultimate sac-
rifice, honour the men and women who
have served and continue to serve, and
pay our collective respects.
Canada’s military veterans
deserve our respect and thanks
‘Tis the season for open houses. No,
not the holiday kind. The season of uni-
versity and college open houses is upon
us and it’s also full of gifts and merri-
ment.
As a recruiter for Trent University
Durham – Greater Toronto Area, the
late fall is one of my busiest times as I
set out on the road, visiting students
from school boards spanning the entire
province, armed with brochures, pro-
gram information and, of course, swag
-- who doesn’t love a free water bottle?
Open house is a special time. It’s when
students get to come to us here at Trent
University Durham - GTA. Our ‘pros-
pects,’ as we call them, finally get to step
foot on our campus. They get a sense of
the atmosphere of our university. They
get to see for themselves what we’ve
been telling them -- why our university
is a great choice for them. It’s where stu-
dents begin to discover what it will be
like to be a part of higher education. It’s
an important step in the lives of those
who are considering post-secondary
education.
At Trent, we do open house well. Real-
ly well. First of all, we love it when you
come to visit us, because we get to show
you just how great we are -- all the rea-
sons that make us the No. 1 undergrad-
uate university in the province (for the
sixth year in a row, I might add). If you
or someone you know is thinking about
going to university, read on -- I’ll tell
you more about us and our upcoming
open house.
At Trent Durham’s open house on
Nov. 12, you’re going to experience a
lecture, or several, if you choose. Busi-
ness, Social Work, Psychology, Child
and Youth Studies... the list goes on.
We’re offering mini-lectures similar to
the kind you’ll experience in your first-
year, so you’ll get a real sense of what it’s
like to be a Trent student.
Our clubs and groups fair is also taking
place so you can explore just how many
activities there are on campus. There
are so many different interest groups to
choose from and you’ll be able to tailor
your campus-life experience to suit you
perfectly.
Faculty will be on-hand ready to
chat with you as well. Trent Durham
is known for its stellar student/fac-
ulty interactions and open house is
no exception. Our faculty is available
to you for the whole afternoon, not
just in the mini-lectures, but through-
out the campus. Ask them your ques-
tions, engage in some academic rheto-
ric about a philosophical question that
you’ve been pondering, or take a selfie
with a world-renowned researcher or
award-winning lecturer. They’re at your
disposal to learn more about them, and
the academic programs that they are
passionate about.
If you’re considering post-secondary
education, you don’t want to miss open
house. On Saturday, Nov. 12, from 1 to
4 p.m. we’re opening our campus, and
we’re looking forward to meeting you.
Oh, and as an added bonus -- if you
attend open house, you can enter our
draw to win your first-year tuition free!

Street value of marijuana seized
estimated at more than $50,000
DURHAM -- A cop’s suspicion about a vehicle being
driven erratically Wednesday night in north Durham
Region led to the seizure of more than 120 pounds of
marijuana and charges for a Clarington man.
The officer spotted a truck towing a camper trail-
er travelling below the speed limit and swaying into
the opposite lane at about 9 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 2
on Lakeridge Road near Regional Road 13 in Brock
Township, police said.
A traffic stop resulted in the discovery of a small
amount of marijuana in the truck cab, and more
than eight pounds of marijuana shake in the truck’s
box.
Officers obtained a search warrant for the camper
and inside found more than 18 pounds of pot, most
of it packaged for sale, and a further 96 pounds of
shake, which is used in the production of hash oil,
police said.
Police estimate the total value of the drugs is esti-
mated at $54,000.
Brian O’Connor, 49, of Holt Road in Clarington,
is charged with possession and production of can-
nabis, as well as using an unauthorized vehicle
plate.

Reader sees
houses becoming
much cheaper
in future
To the editor:
Re: ‘Durham councillors must remember
taxpayers not made of money’ editorial,
Oct. 27
You no doubt have readers right across
Durham Region applauding your lit-
tle rant against taxes. Now don’t get
me wrong, I’m no big fan of politi-
cians (especially those who kill us with
incinerators) but they didn’t drive the
housing prices up. Meanwhile it was
announced today that the major Cana-
dian housing markets are alarmingly
overvalued and as your article pointed
out, this “fact” affects suburban markets
as well.
The Canadian economy is virtual-
ly flat. The world economy is in tatters.
World politics are volatile with the U.S.
(the world controller) coming apart at
the seams. Global warming is negative-
ly affecting the weather, the climate, the
availability of water, agriculture and, of
course, the world economy with torna-
dos, hurricanes, floods, earth quakes,
wild fires ...
In my mind, worldwide recession,
massive unemployment and another
real estate bubble burst will sadly move
many new homeowners well past their
concerns regarding exorbitant taxes --
because they’ll be walking away from a
home they can neither pay for nor sell.
I honest to God hope I’m wrong but I
believe houses will soon be much, much
cheaper.

The deterioration
of Harwood Avenue
To the editor:
There’s a sign on the east side of Har-
wood Avenue southbound advertising
‘Road Improvements’. The sign should
read ‘Road Deterioration’.
How can a roadway be improved by
eliminating a lane of traffic? Ajax Mayor
and council should be ashamed of
themselves for destroying a beautiful
roadway which presented the wonderful
Ajax lakefront.
It is probably the most hideous imple-
mentation this council has ever done. It
looks like a Developing World roadway,
designed without forethought, pedes-
trians fighting with bike traffic, gardens
which will turn into weeds.
All this for only $800,000 of taxpayers’
dollars.
Ajax longs for politicians who will
focus on the town’s REAL NEEDS. We
DON’T NEED pictures of bicycles on
street signs. We don’t need to strangle
traffic.

Slots money does not
keep taxes low in Ajax
To the editor:
Re: Ajax receives about $1.9 million in
OLG Slots at Ajax Downs money, news,
Nov. 2
I read with interest this article regard-
ing the slots money. Everything was fine
until I got to the last paragraph, which
states, “In 2015 the town received $7.16
million. It uses the money to keep taxes
low, advance capital projects and pro-
vide funding for social causes.”
The part about “keeping taxes low”
has to be a joke, right? Reading that
line almost made me choke on my corn
flakes. Who is trying to kid who here?
I read previously that council has pro-
posed yet another two percent or so
increase for the coming year, throw in a
similar amount for the Region, and we
are looking at between a four or five per
cent increase once again.
If this was in the City of Toronto, I’m
sure they would be rioting in the streets
or at least want someone’s head on a
platter.
Yet we put up with this crap year
after year and no one seems to have the
stones to say enough is enough.
I attended a Ward 2 meeting last year,
and this very subject was brought up,
about slots money. It was stated at that
meeting that slots money does definitely
not have any bearing on taxes.

Regional councillors
behaving like sheep
To the editor:
Re: Article ‘Durham councillors must
remember taxpayers not made of money”,
editorial, Oct. 27
First let me say thanks to Councillor Neal
of Clarington for speaking up on behalf of
Durham residents.
Speaking for myself, another $50 or more
tax hike is too much. The cost of utilities,
food and other necessities of life have all
gone up over the last year. Our money can
only go so far.
Of course none of the other councillors
backed him, because they are cowards.
They are like sheep.

LCBO, Brock Street
Brewery announce
recall of canned
Blonde Lager
DURHAM -- The LCBO and a local brewery
have announced a recall of beer over con-
cerns the cans may burst.
A “limited number of cans” of Brock
Street Blonde Lager produced in October
are undergoing a second fermentation,
which can create excessive pressure inside
the containers, the LCBO said Monday,
Nov. 7.
The affected product has been removed
from LCBO shelves and customers can
return unopened cans.
Consumers are advised to be cautious
when handling 473 ml cans of the beer.
Affected lot numbers include BA-290816-
22; BA-170816-21; BA-080816-20 and
BA-020816-19.
The lot code is located near the base of
the can.

Search warrant executed
by DRP’s Tactical
Support Unit; five face
numerous charges
DURHAM -- Durham police seized three
firearms and a bow, as well as a quantity of
drugs, from an Oshawa home early Friday
morning.
On Nov. 4, members of the Gun and Gang
Enforcement Unit concluded an investiga-
tion into possible illegal firearms at a resi-
dence. A search warrant was executed by
the Tactical Support Unit on Cricklewood
Drive in Oshawa.
A 12-gauge shotgun, a rifle and sawed-off
shotgun were seized, as well as more than
100 rounds of ammunition, a compound
bow, drugs and cash. The drugs included
crystal methamphetamine, cocaine, mari-
juana and hydropmorph pills. The street
value of the drugs seized is about $8,500.
Two of the guns were stolen from a resi-
dence during a break and enter in Oshawa
earlier this year.
Five people were arrested in the resi-
dence.
David Kovacs, 37, of Cricklewood Drive
in Oshawa; Amanda Hutton, 32, of Burn-
ham Street (police did not specify which
municipality); Christopher Merklinger, 29,
of Park Road South in Oshawa; Todd Sta-
pley, 47, of Cricklewood Drive in Oshawa;
and Kayla-Lynn Marquardt, 29, of Har-
mony Road North in Oshawa, are charged
with three counts of possession for the
purpose of trafficking and several weap-
ons-related changes, including unauthor-
ized possession of a firearm. All were held
for bail hearings.

BY DAPHNE GUERRERO
Why wouldn’t you want to share that hilari-
ous video of little Liam lying about stealing
cookies from the cookie jar when the evi-
dence is all over his face?
And that priceless photo of Emma celebrat-
ing her first potty training success? It’s just
the sort of milestone that attracts kudos and
cheery chatter on your social media page.
But what will Liam and Emma think when
it’s rediscovered by their peers when they hit
high school? Or what if it ends up on some
blogger’s viral top 10 list or is discovered by a
prospective future employer?
Sharing personal mementos online with
family and friends in the 21st century requires
some serious forethought.
“The Net never forgets,” said Daniel Ther-
rien, privacy commissioner of Canada. “Once
you’ve posted something online, it can be
very difficult to get it back.”
Recognizing that children and teens are an
especially vulnerable group when it comes to
the reputational harm that could come from
sharing personal information online, Ther-
rien’s first bit of advice is for parents to lead by
example.
“You can’t expect your children to think
before they click if you don’t,” he said. “Those
funny photos of your child can be copied,
shared and stuck online forever. Posting them
is not unlike a friend tagging you in an unflat-
tering or compromising photo without your
permission.”
Commissioner Therrien is also urging
families to create their household do’s and
don’ts for surfing the web and downloading
and using mobile applications together. The
Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Can-
ada recently unveiled House Rules, an inter-
active tool aimed at helping families do just
that. The template can be downloaded from
the OPC’s website.
Ontario’s information and privacy com-
missioner, Brian Beamish, tells kids and their
parents to be proactive and to think before
they post. Nothing is ever deleted from the
Internet.
“When going online, kids should think
about ‘the 7 Ps’,” said Beamish. “Parents,
police, predators, professors, prospective
employers, peers and pals can view their
online posts. They should think about wheth-
er they are comfortable with the informa-
tion they are sharing. Privacy is about free-
dom of choice and people can control how
much personal information they post online
and who has access to it.” Another helpful
resource is the OPC’s graphic novel aimed at
tweens and younger teenagers. Social Smarts:
Privacy, the Internet and You was created to
help young Canadians better understand and
navigate privacy issues in the online world.
Developed with feedback from youth, it
tells the story of a brother and sister who learn
-- sometimes the hard way -- about the priva-
cy risks related to social networking, mobile
devices, texting and online gaming.
Parents will also find a handy discussion
guide that accompanies the graphic novel,
which can be used to kick off a conversation
about safe surfing.
Of course there’s no reason to wait until
your kids are older to teach them about online
privacy. A number of activity sheets available
for younger children seek to explore privacy
issues through mazes, colouring, connect-
the-dots and other fun, hands-on activities.
“By better understanding privacy commu-
nications, children will be able to make more
informed choices about the websites they
visit, the apps they use and the games they
play,” Therrien said.
Check out the October issue of Durham Parent
magazine or go to durhamregion.com for 12 privacy
tips for parents.

about digital privacy as the manager of public education
and outreach at the Office of the Privacy Commissioner
of Canada.

Cold weather
bucket list
for Durham
parents
and kids
Cold and dark days don’t have to be
bleak. Durham Parent to the rescue with
this brief bucket list to make the cold
weather a cause for celebration.
Game night -- Invite friends and fam-
ily over and bust out the board games.
There’s very little prep work needed and
you can enjoy hours of bonding time
with your little ones.
Host a cooking show -- Cool dark days
are just right for baking or cooking. Let
the kids plan the menu and get busy in
the kitchen. Record clips of the process
to watch together while enjoying what
they’ve whipped up.
Feed the birds -- Grab a bag of bird
seed and take a walk along a local trail. If
the weather is miserable, buy (or make)
a plain birdhouse and let the kids dec-
orate it. Fill it up and hang it outside a
window to admire their handiwork all
winter long.
Puddle jumping -- It’s hard to keep
young kids cooped up in the house all
day. With some cute rain boots and a
colourful umbrella, you can turn them
loose outside even when it’s wet.
Savour the snow -- When the white
stuff finally falls, take the time to enjoy
it. Young kids will love building a snow-
man or snow fort. Older children can get
active with skiing, snowboarding, snow
tubing and cross-country skiing. Ever
heard of fat biking (a.k.a. fat-tire biking,
a.k.a. snow biking)? It could be a great
year to discover a new winter sport with
the family.
Community holiday celebrations
-- Keep your eye on your community
events calendar. As we get closer to the
holidays, there will be a host of awe-
some family activities to enjoy -- holiday
house tours, tree lighting ceremonies,
Santa Claus parades and the Santa train.
-- with tips from tourism in the planning and economic
development department of Durham Region.

STEPHENS, Keith William - Keith W Stephens
passed away peacefully at his home in Newcastle, Ontario, on 26 October 2016, with
his family by his side. Keith was 83 years
old, beloved husband of Patricia "Scooter"
(nee: Daniel) for 61 years and devoted father
to Kevin, Cindy (Norm) and Michael (Paul); adoring grandfather to Stacey, Madison,
Emily and Jason; dear brother to Doug
(Michelle) and cherished uncle to Shannon
(Mike). Keith will also be missed by his
faithful buddy Max. Keith was an avid golfer
and sports fan. In his family's younger life,
he was always the father at the rink or pool at
5AM for his kids. He dedicated many years
coaching winning teams in a variety of sports,
primarily hockey and baseball. He played
tennis, racquetball, and always golfed. His favorite teams were the Toronto Blue Jays
and Toronto Raptors, whose games he
enjoyed for the strategies in the game, as
much as the great plays. Keith worked at
Unilever / Thomas J Lipton Company for 44 successful years retiring in 1994. In
retirement, Keith managed the Wilmot Creek
Lakers baseball team every year, and
organized many golf events during the
summer at Wilmot Creek and again during
the winter at their home in Naples FL. He
especially loved marshalling the 9th and 18th
holes at the Shark Shootout every November
in Naples. Both north and south homes were
special because of the good times and great
friendships. Regardless of the setting Keith was always at the epicenter of the laughter
and joy. We miss you and we will see you
again. Please join us for a celebration of life
and bring your stories, pictures, and smiles:
Thursday, 17 Nov 2016 (12 to 3 PM) @ THE
WHEEL HOUSE, Wilmot Creek, Newcastle,
Ontario (289) 388-9884 (Cindy). In lieu of
flowers, a financial donation can be made, in
memory of Keith Stephens, to the charity

mailing a cheque to: Alumni House,
University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, N1G 2W1. Please make cheque payable to:

Guelph".
TITUS, Joel, age 66, died in his sleep at home
on the afternoon of Oct 26, 2016. Joel will be missed by his wife of 36 years Lynn Hawley,
his daughter Jennifer and his son known as
B2T. He was a loyal husband, devoted father
and hard-working business owner. He was
also an active member of the Ajax Kinsmen
Club and avid ball-player. Joel was an honest retailer in the paint and paper business,
operating the St. Clair Paint and Paper Store
in the Discovery Bay Plaza in Ajax, as well as
the One Stop Paint Shop in Pickering. He
readily shared his knowledge about paint and home decor with both home owners and
painters. His family invites those who knew
him to attend a Celebration of Life at the Ajax
Community Centre, 75 Centennial Road, in
the Commodore's Room from 2:30 to 5:30 pm. If you chose to attend, please bring a
memory (either oral or written) to share at the
