What Does It Meanto Be an executor?AA&&QQ
Someday a family member or friend may ask permission to appoint you as executor of his orher estate. Before you take on the task be sure you know what’s involved.An executor is the legalrepresentative named in a will to administer an estate when someone dies. It’s not a simple job.Here are a few of the duties of an executor.
• Locate and read the will.
• Help with funeral arrangements.
• Consult with a lawyer and/or gather information and forms from the government website tobegin the process of obtaining a grant of probate.
• Locate and deal with beneficiaries.
• Deal with financial institutions, eg open a bank account for the estate.
• Pay debts, taxes and funeral expenses.
• File the deceased’s terminal income tax return.
• Distribute assets as specified in the will, general when the Canada RevenueAgency providesa tax clearance certificate.
• Consider executor insurance to reduce your risk of personal liability (particularly relevant inOntario and British Columbia).
Some of these duties can require considerable financial acumen.And at the very least people skillsmay be involved at a time when relatives are bereaved. If you’re not up to the job, don’t take it on.

Bermudian students
check out UOIT
Jillian Follert
jfollert@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — It’s not unusual for high
school students to visit UOIT, but one
group recently travelled more than 1,000
kilometres to check out the local univer-
sity. The week of June 19, UOIT hosted a
group of high school students from Ber-
muda, which has a college, but no univer-
sity of its own.
Students there typically travel to Cana-
da, the United States or Britain to obtain a
four-year degree.
Joe Stokes, associate registrar for enrol-
ment services at UOIT, says the universi-
ty has hosted Bermudian students in the
past, and has 10 students from the island
confirmed to attend in the fall.
It’s part of an ongoing effort to boost the
number of international students attend-
ing UOIT. Stokes says international stu-
dents represent about seven per cent of
UOIT’s overall enrolment, with a goal of
increasing that number to 10 per cent over
the next few years.
“It’s great for our students, it adds a
level of international enrichment, it allows
them to get real experience with people
from another country or culture,” he says.
The Grade 11 students from Warwick
Academy and Bermuda High School spent
five days visiting UOIT, participating in
everything from geocaching and a crime
scene investigation, to robotics and sail
boat building.
“I was considering applying here before
the trip, after my experiences I definitely
want to apply here due to the many oppor-
tunities and experiences that I can partake
in,” said visiting student Nyla Maharaj.
UOIT has international students from
more than 80 countries on campus, with
China, India, Nigeria and the Caribbean as
the most common.
Stokes says the university is current-
ly targeting areas in the Caribbean, Latin
America and Middle East, to attract future
students.
In Ontario, international students make
up about 11 per cent of total university
enrolments, with about 60,000 interna-
tional students in the 2015/2016 school
year. Next year, there are plans for UOIT to
host high school students from Brazil.
OSHAWA — Visiting from
a Bermuda High School,
students tested their sail-
boat they constructed
in a wind tunnel during
a tour of the University
of Ontario Institute of
Technology as part of
an effort to recruit more
international students to
UOIT.

Ajax declares
itself a
sanctuary
city
Keith Gilligan
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
AJAX — The town has joined five other
Canadian municipalities by declaring
it’s a sanctuary city.
The declaration means undocument-
ed immigrants won’t be asked about
their status if they chose to register for a
town program.
“We want to ensure residents know
Ajax buildings are safe places for every-
one,” Tracey Vaughan, the director
of recreation, culture & communi-
ty development told council on Monday,
June 26.
Council unanimously approved the
declaration.
“All residents will be able to access
all services regardless of their status.
We won’t ask about their status to reg-
ister for a program. We won’t share per-
sonal information with the federal gov-
ernment unless we’re required by feder-
al and provincial law,” Vaughan added.
“There isn’t a requirement to ask for
documentation.”
She said being a sanctuary commu-
nity gives undocumented and precari-
ous status residents full access to local
services and supports their legal path to
citizenship.
Toronto, Hamilton, Vancouver, Lon-
don and Montreal have declared them-
selves sanctuary cities, while Ottawa,
Saskatoon and Regina are considering it.
In the United States, there are 41 sanctu-
ary cities and four states have declared
the designation.
Jai Sahak, the town’s diversity &
community engagement co-ordinator,
noted Ajax is the most diverse commu-
nity in Durham region.
“We want to reconfirm to all resi-
dents, especially the most vulnerable.
Some are forced to live without status or
on the edge of status. It could be a moth-
er, a father. They can access town servic-
es,” Sahak said.
“It’s not an attempt to normalize their
status. The goal is to support their path
to citizenship,” he noted. “It’s not an
endorsement of illegal immigration.”
With access to the town’s programs,
people can “live more meaningful lives,”
Sahak added, saying those who take part
in a town initiative will “feel a sense of
obligation.”
Wards 1 and 2 regional Coun. Shaun
Collier said: “It’s a great initiative. It’s
something I absolutely support. It’s
something we’re already doing.”
The program is “more than just a
public statement. It’s something we’re
already doing. This formalizes it,” Col-
lier said.
Vaughan noted: “It really makes it
clear Ajax residents are Ajax residents.”
The town will run a campaign to let
residents know about the initiative.
“We have great partners in the com-
munity. We’ll let them know why this is
important and why Ajax has taken this
position,” Vaughan said.
Wards 3 and 4 regional Coun. Col-
leen Jordan said: “I’m so pleased this has
come forward. It sends a clear statement
to the residents in the community.”

idence on Rougemount Drive. Durham
police said officers responding to the call
around 8 p.m. June 27 found a 49-year-
old woman who was taken to hospital for
treatment of non life-threatening injuries.
Police obtained a search warrant
and seized two loaded 9 mm handguns,

possession for the purpose of trafficking
and numerous firearms-related offenc-
es is a Pickering man. His name was not
released by police.
Police issue
warning after
medication
lost in Oshawa
DURHAM — Police have issued a warn-
ing after a report of a large quantity of med-
ication was lost on Monday in Oshawa.
A man reported misplacing a shopping
bag containing six 30 mL prescription bot-
tles of methadone June 26 in the vicinity of
King and Simcoe Streets, Durham police
said. The drugs can be dangerous if taken
without guidance of a doctor, police said.
Anyone who finds medication should
take it to a pharmacy or hospital for prop-
er disposal, police said. Under no circum-
stances should containers be opened or
drugs consumed.
all residents will be able
to access all services
regardless of their status.
We won’t ask about their status to register for a
program.

PICKERING — Mike Temos has been
skateboarding since he was just a kid.
“The community made me want to go
back to a skate park more than anywhere
else,” said Temos, 22.
The Pickering resident, like a lot of avid
skateboarders, is more drawn to skate-
boarding than to team sports.
“Ultimately, it’s how well you do (per-
sonally),” said Steve Reesor, a longtime
skateboarder. “Team sport is good for
some people but it’s not for everyone.”
Tired of the aging Diana, Princess of
Wales Skateboard Park, built in the late
1990s, enthusiasts for the sport gathered to
discuss options for future skateboard facil-
ities in Pickering at an open house on June
27.
“It’s outdated, it’s too small, that half-
pipe is dangerous,” said Reesor, who
equates skateboarding with both sport and
art, and feels it promotes an active lifestyle.
Also in attendance was Scott Loyst, a
father, paramedic and skateboarder who
has seen 314 skate parks across Canada
and the U.S.
“We have the oldest park in Durham
Region,” he said.
Loyst had supported a 2015 proposal by
Pickering city staff to create a second skate
park at East Woodlands Park, adjacent to
the Petticoat Creek Community Centre.
The $200,000 park would have been con-
sidered a micro park, about half the size of
the current skate park.
But the committee of council instead
asked staff to take a bigger look at the issue
of skate parks in Pickering and to bring a
plan back to council in the future.
City staff see the need for addition-
al skateboard facilities within south
Pickering as well as the future need within
the Seaton community, and is now work-
ing on a skateboard park strategy, in asso-
ciation with the ongoing recreation and
parks master plan process.
“Decades have passed and the park
is showing its wear,” according to a staff
information board, available at the open
house and online.
It noted skate park design standards
have also improved over several genera-
tions to provide improved layout and con-
struction.
“An existing issue is some of the youth
don’t feel safe there,” said Arnold Mostert,
senior co-ordinator of landscape and
parks development. “It’s out of sight.”
The current skate park is located behind
the Pickering Recreation Complex.
The staff report said it’s recommend-
ed this skate park eventually be decom-
missioned and repurposed when suitable
alternate skate parks are in place.
Temos said the current park in Pickering
is well known at other skateboard parks for
its bad conditions, which includes cracks
throughout the concrete.
“I feel like it would make our city look
better,” Temos said of a new skate park.
Reesor agrees that skate parks can
attract people from out of town.
“When I go away on business, I look for
skate parks,” he said. “If you have a quality
facility, people will come from out of town,
they’ll stay.”
The new strategy will provide direction
on the number, location, size and style of
skateboard parks needed to adequately
service Pickering.
“We hope to have the strategy done this
fall,” said Mostert.
Then it will be open to the public and
council for review, and eventually up to
council to decide if and which plan goes
ahead.
The city is considering four types of
parks: the largest, community parks;
neighbourhood parks; skate spots; and the
smallest, skate dots. There will be several
options, from one community park with
several skate dots and skate spots, sev-
eral skate spots and skate dots, or several
neighbourhood parks and skate dots.
“You don’t necessarily have to put a
$700,000 park everywhere; $120,000 will
get you what you need,” said Loyst.
The city is considering 19 potential
locations for south Pickering.
The planning strategy for Seaton’s
skateboarding facilities revolves around
a community skateboard park at its cen-
tre with the option of either skate spots or
skate dots dispersed across the surround-
ing neighbourhoods.
The city’s consultants have told
Pickering director of engineering servic-
es Richard Holborn that skateboard park
users in other communities have been
embracing the new facilities and respect-
ing them.
“Once they have a facility they can use,
they’re going to take pride in it,” said Hol-
born. “I think they want to be accepted.”
Factors to be considered in the plan
will include demographic data, recreation
trends, inventory of existing and proposed
parkland and their suitability for skate-
board facilities and municipal best prac-
tices.
The ideal skateboard park is not only for
skateboarders, but for those who use BMX,
rollerblades and scooters.

ments and opportunities to comment or

ing.ca/recreationandparks.

It’s encouraging to see the region’s insti-
tutions of higher learning — in this case,
Durham College — rolling with changes
to skill sets and thinking outside of the box
where post-secondary education is con-
cerned.
Durham College recently announced
plans to offer its first-ever degree program
at the Oshawa-based institution next fall.
The college will roll out its four-year bach-
elor of health care technology management
program — the first of its kind in Canada.
The decision to follow through on this
trend-setting direction wasn’t a difficult
one for the college. It was simply a matter
of meeting a job demand in the market-
place and, accordingly, offering prospective
students a program that capitalizes on the
emerging technological landscape where
health care is concerned.
According to Rick Tidman, one of the
professors involved in the new program,
health care is becoming much more sophis-
ticated and more technology-based than
ever before, and the need for graduates at
the vanguard of these ‘incredible’ changes
in that industry has never been higher.
“We’re creating a profession based on
demand,” said Tidman, a professor with the
School of Science and Engineering Tech-
nology, and the co-ordinator for the new
degree program. “Health care is moving
toward being a technology-based profes-
sion.”
Best of all, for students, the health care
technology management degree program
will deliver a balance of theory and prac-
tical job-related studies — something the
university experience doesn’t tend to dupli-
cate.
Solely looking at dollars and cents, earn-
ing a degree through a community college
would certainly be cheaper than a four-year
degree at university, which may sway pro-
spective students in the direction of Dur-
ham College.
The college program will be the equiva-
lent of a four-year university degree, mean-
ing graduates of the health care technology
management program have the option to
go on to master-level studies at university.
Most of all, graduates will be in demand for
and in line with good, lucrative positions
within the health care technology field.
Durham College is just in the beginning
stages of its degree program offerings, as it
plans to eventually provide six degree pro-
grams in areas where a need has been iden-
tified. Next up is the launching of the col-
lege’s second degree program, an honours
bachelor of behavioural science in 2019.
Durham College should be lauded for
delivering a program that, upon graduation,
allows students to have a better-than aver-
age shot at a well-paying career, while also
allowing grads to continue on to university
for postgraduate work if they choose.

‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ too important a
book to be excluded from the curriculum
To the editor:
Re: ‘Durham teachers concerned school
board is trying to kill To Kill a Mockingbird,
news, durhamregion.com
It seems there is some confusion about
whether or not To Kill a Mockingbird
should continue to be a prescribed text in
Durham high schools rather than a pro-
scribed one. For my part, I sincerely hope
that the book remains on the curriculum.
Yes, there is racist language, including
the “N” word. However, in the hands of a
skilled teacher, the use of such language
can be explained that, while it is anach-
ronistic and totally repulsive today, it was
in common usage only a few decades ago
and, unfortunately, still is in some circles.
This presents an opportunity to sen-
sitize students to the power of language
and the harm it can inflict. Further, the
story deals with the injustice visited upon
a black man by a small-minded, largely
racist community. While I understand that
some black students and parents would
rather not be reminded of such indignities
... quite rightly ... there is most certainly, at
the very least, a vital lesson there for stu-
dents of other races.
More importantly, the novel underlines
the kind of injustices blacks routinely expe-
rienced in the past and, sadly, still often do
today. These are very powerful and neces-
sary lessons for students of every race.
I remember quite vividly how shaken
I was after reading the book as a teen. It
helped shape my outlook on life and how
important it was to treat people fairly and
respectfully. Good literature should put us
inside the shoes of others and bolsters our
sense of understanding and empathy.
For those who are upset today with the
Black Lives Matter movement, I strongly
suggest a thorough reading of this power-
ful book, as it will surely help explain why
this movement even exists today. More
than ever, this book should be kept on the
curriculum, if only as optional reading. It is
entirely too important to exclude.

Bicycles should not be used on sidewalks
To the editor:
Bicycles are prohibited from side-
walks for good reason. A cyclist hitting or
running into a person can cause a lot of
bodily harm and even death! This is not
reported very often, but it does happen.
People are supposed to be on side-
walks and NOT bicycles, because the use
of a bicycle is a form of transportation
and can hurt someone. Now, many read-
ers will say: “But what about the scooters
that people use to get around when their
mobility is impaired?” That is another
situation that most people already deal
with. Bicycles are not allowed on side-
walks in almost every city and town in
this nation.
I can understand why a lot of people
use their bicycles on sidewalks, but it is
not right. A lot of people will blame young
people for doing this, but it is mostly
older people who use sidewalks for their
bicycles. I do not know the solution to
this very grave problem that seems to be
getting worse! The only thing that I can
think of is to continue to educate people
and write letters outlining the problem.
Maybe that will solve this. Please help!

It’s a beautiful day
AJAX -- Doves were released during the Beautification Day at Pine Ridge Memorial
Gardens recently. The day held a number of activities, including an unveiling of a
Wall of Memories.
Couple face
charges after
senior robbed
DURHAM — A man and woman face
numerous charges for a series of incidents
including a theft that resulted in a senior
being injured.
The two are suspects in a robbery, two-
break-ins and transportation fraud for
using a taxi as a getaway vehicle, Durham
police said.
In the first incident, an 84-year-old man
reported his wallet stolen in his apartment
by two suspects who fled on foot on June
26, police said. The senior sustained minor
injuries, police said.
They’re also suspects in two break-ins
on June 28 — one on Cordova Road in
Oshawa and another on Holt Road in Clar-
ington, police said. They’re accused of a
theft on the same day, when it’s alleged
they used the taxi to flee.
Aaron Beaumont and Catherine Dobbs,
both 43 and of no fixed address, face charg-
es including break and enter, robbery,
fraud, theft of a credit card and breach of
recognizance.

Claremont tour
and tea features
six unique
gardens
Kristen Calis
kcalis@durhamregion.com
CLAREMONT — From contemporary and
manicured, to whimsical and historic, a vari-
ety of gardens will be on display for a self-
guided tour in the hamlet of Claremont on
Saturday.
“It’s a first for us,” said Toni Doyle, presi-
dent of the Claremont Garden Club.
The Gardens of Claremont Garden Tour
and Tea, put on by the fun, casual group of
garden enthusiasts, will run from noon to 5
p.m. on July 8.
“We have six gardens,” Doyle said. “They’re
all very different, which makes the tour very
interesting. All of the gardens are within the
boundary of the village, which is also nice. If
people are so inclined they could easily walk
between the gardens, which would be nice
on a nice afternoon. We’re praying for good
weather.”
The tea will take place at the Masonic Hall.
“It will be homemade scones, homemade
jam, a cup of tea or a glass of lemonade, what-
ever people prefer,” said Doyle.
One of the gardens is owned by an artist
who has created a restful setting for her stu-
dio housed in a historic late 1800s building,
where wagons and carriages were once built.
Vegetables, flowers and interesting art pieces
can be found inside the split rail cedar fence.
Visitors can see the studio and view the own-
er’s work.
“Her garden is very whimsical,” Doyle said.
Another is a charming cottage style gar-
den surrounding a century home in the cen-
tre of the village, which has won many awards
over the years. Complete with a rose covered
arbour and a white picket fence, the owner
has transformed the small property into a
delightful garden with perennial beds and
water features as well as apricot, peach and
plum trees, and even chickens and ducks.
“it’s incredible what she’s done in a small
space,” Doyle said. “It’s a corner lot. It’s
charming.”
Visitors may purchase divisions of plants
seen in the garden.
A master gardener will also be on hand for
the day. Since many people have yet to visit
Claremont, Doyle said going on the tour will
be an opportunity to check out the hamlet,
which is in the north part of Pickering.
Tickets for the tour and tea are $20 each.
They must be purchased in advance and are
available at Country Depot, 1734 Hoxton St.,
Claremont or at the Claremont General Store,
1703 Central St., Claremont.
For more information, email claremont-
gardenclub@gmail.com or call 905-649-
3005. The website can be found at www.cla-
remontgardenclub.ca.

PICKERING -- Trish Webster showed off one of the art pieces she will have on dis-
play when her home is featured in a Garden Tour and Tea on July 8 from noon to

Durham Real Estate, Wednesday, July 5, 2017
Although the heydays of the real estate boom of the
early 2000s have not quite returned, things look posi-
tive. In the United States, 1,226,000 new homes were
built in 2016, according to data from Consumer Re-ports. That was the most since 2007. Resales also have been more promising. The Nation-
al Association of Realtors® says the median number of
days a home was on the market in April 2017 reached a new low of 29 days. However, low supply levels did stanch existing home sales somewhat. By mid-2017, the
market was a seller’s market, with more people in the
market for homes than properties available. But sales during that time were still outpacing sales figures from a year prior. In fact, in May 2017, home sales in Canada
increased to their highest level in more than five years,
according to the Canadian MLS® Systems.Low interest rates on mortgages and more confi-dence in the economy has driven many people to make improvements to their exist-
ing homes. As is typical, the things homeowners are looking for in 2017 have evolved
from years past. The following are some trends that are helping to steer the real estate market further.• Smaller homes: Home sizes in the United States steadily increased for decades,
eventually leading to an average of 2,453 square feet in 2014, according to U.S. Cen-
sus figures. However, Realtor.com reported in 2015 that new construction homes
have already begun to shrink by 40 square feet. There
seems to be a slight trend toward more modest homes
as people consider affordability and maintenance on
larger properties. The National Association of Home Builders states buyers are now looking for smaller, more livable homes with flexible floor plans, energy-efficient
appliances and plenty of storage space.
• Matte finishes: Stainless steel and luster have been popular for years. However, the next big thing is matte finishes on faucets, appliances and even in countertops.
These less flashy finishes are prized for their warmth
and elegance. While some high-end models with matte finishes have been available for several years, even less expensive models are now available.
• Smarter technology: Many homeowners are em-
bracing smart technology throughout their homes, but it’s not just lights that turn on with voice command or more efficient thermostats. Innovative technology includes toilets that can autono-
mously stay clean and sanitized, refrigerators equipped with cameras so homeown-
ers can see the contents inside and indoor food recyclers that can turn food waste into fertilizer. Staying abreast of the ever-changing trends in home improvement and real estate
can help consumers make the best choices with regard to buying and building their
homes.
Growing trends in today’s homes
Houses are shrinking, selling faster and getting
smarter upgrades according to industry statistics.

When he put down a camera to tempo-
rarily step into some comedy sketches
in the early ‘70s, Don Ferguson did not
expect to be embarking on a 45-year --
and counting -- performance career.
That was back with “The Jest Society,”
a Montreal-based comedy troupe that
soon changed their name to The Royal
Canadian Air Farce.
Think of it: Ferguson and the Farce
pre-date “Saturday Night Live”. They’ve
spanned the modern comedy spectrum,
from Monty Python to Baroness von
Sketch Show.
As a performer, along with fellow Farce
survivor Luba Goy, Ferguson has goofed
on the Canadian scene through more
than 600 radio shows, 16 seasons of a
weekly CBC TV series and many New
Year’s Eve specials. The most recent
annual salute to the New Year drew well
over two million viewers.
When fellow founding Farcer and life-
long friend Roger Abbott passed away in
2011, Ferguson soldiered on as the exec-
utive producer of the annual CBC spe-
cials. As well as developing other proj-
ects, Don Ferguson Productions became
the keeper of the flame, mentoring a new
generation of comedians to carry on the
Farce tradition.
Viewers, however, still want to see Fer-
guson and Goy every New Year’s. This
year, a second Farce special finds the
two fan favourites joined by six young-
er performers – Craig Lauzon, Jessica
Holmes, Darryl Hinds and Emma Hunter
as well as first-timers Chris Wilson and
Isabel Kanaan -- as the Air Farce helps
celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday (air-
ing Saturday, July 1 at 8 p.m. ET and live
across Canada on CBC).
Ferguson, trim and fit at 71, says he
keeps trying to bow out of the sketches
and concentrate more on running the
comedy business.
“If I could pass for 50 instead of 70,
I would be performing as much as I
could,” he says over lunch in Toronto at
the TIFF Bell Lightbox’s Canteen deli.
“But I know there are not a lot of comedy
roles that come along for my skill set at
my age.”
You can’t blame Ferguson for wanting
to spend more time with his wife, enjoy-
ing their downtown Toronto home or
indulging their penchant for travel.
Professionally, he’s also embracing
semi-retirement. “Luba and I, we’re
senior citizens now,” he points out. “It’s
time to let some new kids in.” He keeps
telling his writers to ease him out of the
mix, but “the next thing I know I’m in
four of five sketches.”
Canadians aren’t complaining. For
the Canada 150 show – more a look at
Canada’s historical past rather than a
ripped-from-the-headlines year ender
– the writers wanted him to play a part
he perfected decades ago: Prime Minis-
ter Pierre Trudeau, father of the current
PM, Justin.
“I said no,” says Ferguson, invoking
executive producer privilege. The writ-
ers argued viewers will want to see him
dust off his Trudeau impression. “Too
bad,” said the boss.
“I think one of the things that served
us well over the years was the fact that
we were never afraid to move on,” he
says. “When it was time for a change, we
changed.”
On July 1, viewers won’t see Ferguson
in his usual role as General Rickengord,
commanding others to drop the F-Bomb.
That messy sketch targeting the year’s
most notorious newsmakers has been
shelved until New Year’s.
They will see him in other roles, howev-
er, including a very funny sketch where
he plays telephone inventor Alexander
Graham Bell.
Watching Ferguson slip into wigs and
costumes and perform before a live stu-
dio audience of several hundred fans –
many Farce fanatics who have travelled
hundreds of miles to attend a taping –
it’s obvious he still gets a big kick out of
show night.
He remembers how another fellow
Farcer – the late John Morgan – kept
threatening to retire as he aged into
his late 60s. Eventually he did, but not
before admitting to Ferguson that “To be
wanted is pretty terrific.”
Ferguson looks at it this way: artists
or performers or just generally “self-
employed people don’t retire. Picasso
didn’t hit 65 and say, well, that’s it, I’m
clocking out. You keep working until you
can’t do it anymore. It’s what you do.”
As executive producer, Ferguson is
especially proud of the four female Farc-
ers in this summer’s special. “I think the
four women we have now – Luba, Jessica,
Emma and Isabel – are four sensational
comedy performers. And they basically
range in age from 20 to 70!”
He’d like to see them and all the cast

Don’t go

diagnosing
an illness alone
How do you deal with difficult con-
versations?
When someone you love is ill and
facing a difficult decision, how do you
talk to them about it?
If your parent or loved one has not
been declared incompetent, they still
have the right to make decisions for
themselves even if we do not agree with
their choice.
The important thing is that they
make an informed decision. They need
to have all the information in order to
make their choice and if they have been
given that then their decision must be
respected whether we agree with it or
not.
I recently had a conversation with
someone whose family member was
facing a difficult medical decision. Her
family and medical team were not in
agreement with her decision but agreed
it was her right to make it.
My question was does your loved
one have all the information? Has any-
one actually explained what the con-
sequences of her decision may be?
The family was finding it difficult to
have this conversation but in the end,
my friend did just that and it was only
after being totally informed of all
options and possible outcomes that an
informed decision was made.
The final decision was very different
from the position originally taken by
the patient.
When someone is in hospital, we nat-
urally assume that all the options and
possible outcomes will be discussed by
the health care professionals but what
we need to consider is that when you
are faced with a potentially life chang-
ing or life-threatening diagnosis, it is
natural to experience some shock. Even
if you are familiar with health care and
used to the terminology, it can be over-
whelming to have so much information
thrown at you.
You often don’t know what questions
to ask or you may be afraid to ask them
for fear of hearing the worst and you
are not likely to retain the information
given.
If someone you love is going through
a challenging medical situation, I
would suggest asking if they would
like company during medical appoint-
ments or if they are in hospital, perhaps
a family care conference is in order.
Keep a journal of every appoint-
ment, who was seen, every test and
when it was done along with the out-
come. Jot down questions to ask at the
next appointment.
Include every prescription, the dos-
age and frequency that the medication
should be taken. It will be useful to be
able to refer back to this information.
Diagnosing an illness is a bit like
unravelling a mystery. It can take sev-
eral appointments with several differ-
ent health care professionals from a
variety of disciplines.
It is not a process I would suggest
going through alone.

For theMonth of JULY
and crew get more chances to perform
more often. A summer special has been
pitched and discussed for several years.
Ferguson sees the Canada 150 order
as a good sign and hopes CBC puts the
troupe back to work every summer.
Ferguson’s a proud Canadian and, as
a member of Air Farce, enjoys a star on
Canada’s Walk of Fame as well as the
Governor General’s Performing Arts
Award for Lifetime Artistic Achievement.
He has fond memories of Canada’s 100th
birthday, spending the entire last month
of Expo ’67 at the memorable world’s fair
in his hometown.
“It was such an exciting time to be in
Montreal,” he says.
“That was the city in Canada to be in
that year.”
For this salute to Canada’s 150th, Fergu-
son snuck a bit of message into the usual
mischief. One sketch, featuring Lauzon
as well as guest stars Lorne Cardinal
(Corner Gas) and Kaniehtiio Horn (Let-
terkenny), dealt with how Canada still
has a ways to go to make First Nations
residents feel at home in their own coun-
try.
“I wanted to do a piece in the show
that was written and performed by First
Nations people. If you can’t do it when
you’re doing a special on Canada 150,
when are you going to do it?” he asks.
Two words viewers will not hear, how-
ever, not even once during the entire 60
minute special: Donald Trump.
Says Ferguson: “I’m especially proud of
that!”
