The Altona Forest Stewardship Committee received a community grant from the City of Pickering for a project valued up to $10,000. The Celebrating Sustainable Neighbourhoods program challenges neighbourhood groups to do activities that make Pickering a better place environmentally, socially, and economically. Altona Forest now has improved access thanks to City of Pickering, partnerships Altona Forest Stewardship Committee, City of Pickering, local students complete initiative to enhance trailhead Kristen Calis KCalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING — An entrance that used to be hidden to Altona Forest is more welcoming now, thanks to a grant from the City of Pickering and the hard work of dedicated volunteers, stu- dents, teachers and city staff. Often referred to as an urban gem, Altona Forest is situated in Pickering, surrounded on three sides by urban housing. It’s about 53 hectares and also connects to the Rouge- Duffins Wildlife Corridor, and is near the Rouge National Urban Park on the west and Petticoat Creek Conservation Area on the south.

Nicole Zwiers, president of Ontario Pub- lic Service Employees Union (OPSEU) Local 354, which includes faculty at Durham Col- lege, says past strikes haven’t lasted longer than three weeks — and that beyond that it may be “nearly impossible” to save the semester. “Once we hit a certain number of missed days, there is no way we can make that up,” she says. “In the past, it hasn’t lasted longer than three weeks, and we have been able to salvage the semester.” There have been three college strikes in the past 50 years — a strike in 1984 lasted 18 days, a strike in 1989 lasted 20 days and a strike in 2006 also lasted 20 days. Durham College declined to comment on what actions it took to make up missed time after past strikes, and said in a state- ment there is no comment on what “semes- ter completion plans” might look like this time around. “Durham College is not prepared to com- ment on semester completion plans due to the fact that each plan is individual and dependent on many factors, such as the length of the strike,” the statement from the school notes. “Some options that will be con- sidered include: additional in-class hours; online hours; or modified tests and assign- ments.” Durham College has said students affect- ed by the strike will not receive mid-term grades. About 12,000 college faculty at 24 pub- lic colleges across Ontario walked off the job Oct. 16 after OPSEU and the College Employ- er Council were unable to reach an agree- ment. At issue for the union is fairness and job security for contract faculty, more academic freedom and a better ratio of contract to full- time faculty. Ontario colleges currently have 70 to 80 per cent contract faculty, who face “precari- ous” work with no benefits or job security. The union wants to see a 50:50 ratio. Zwiers says picketers at Durham College are getting “tremendous” support on these issues, and says the next move is up to the College Employer Council. “The union has moved considerably in negotiations and the council is stonewalling, they have not moved at all,” Zwiers says. The council issued a statement on Thurs- day saying OPSEU’s demands would add more than $250 million to annual costs, elim- inate thousands of contract faculty jobs, and affect the quality of college programs. The statement says the council’s offer cur- rently on the table addresses the union’s con- cerns by requiring every college to give pref- erence to creating full-time jobs over partial load jobs. “Quite frankly, we need them to come back to the table with practical propos- als — ones that are affordable to our system and will not be harmful to the quality of pro- grams,” said Don Sinclair, CEO of the College Employer Council. “I’m very worried about the impact the strike is having on students,” Deb Matthews, minister of advanced education and skills development, said Wednesday at Queen’s Park. “There’s a lot of anxiety, a lot of unan- swered questions, and it’s very disappointing that the two parties have not yet found their way back to the table. I’m urging everybody to think of the students … why the parties aren’t bargaining is beyond me.” More than 12,000 Durham College stu- dents are affected by the strike. All classes and apprenticeships at Dur- ham College’s Oshawa and Whitby campus- es and the Pickering Learning Site, remain cancelled until further notice. Continuing education classes will contin- ue to run. The campuses are open to students, employees and visitors -- and all student services are operating including the library, book store, Aboriginal Student Centre and a number of mental health and wellness ser- vices. Students are also able to access some technology labs, computer networking labs, classrooms and School of Media, Art and Design studios, as well as the dental clinic, paramedic lab and nursing lab. Durham College said in a statement that students are strongly encouraged to “take advantage of all the campus resources avail- able during the strike to stay engaged with fellow students in study groups, workshops, peer tutoring, and available labs, as well as programming offered by the new student association, Durham College Students Inc.” Once an agreement between OPSEU and the College Employer Council is reached, Durham College will notify students and give them two to three business days’ notice before they are required to return to class. — With files from TorStar News Service Strike heads for third week: Durham Collegesays students will not receive mid-term marks du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • No v e m b e r 1 , 2 0 1 7 3 P Jennifer O’Connell MP Pickering-Uxbridge Please contact us with any questions or concerns about any federal programs or policies, we’d be happy to serve you!

An improved Altona Forest trailhead is the latest community enhancement proj- ect brought to life through the city’s Cele- brating Sustainable Neighbourhoods pro- gram. Program winner, Altona Forest Stew- ardship Committee, worked with the city to complete $10,000 worth of enhance- ments to raise the profile of the neigh- bourhood entrance, located off of Autumn Crescent in Pickering. “It was literally just a vacant grass site,” said Chantal Whitaker, the city’s sustain- ability co-ordinator. “There was no indica- tion that there was a trailhead leading into Altona Forest, so it wasn’t very well used.” New improvements include: an acces- sible pathway from the sidewalk to the Altona Forest entrance; seven native trees along the pathway, with species identi- fication signs; a recycled-plastic bench, waste receptacle and trailhead sign; an educational interpretive sign with photos of wildlife within the forest; and a pollina- tor-friendly garden, planted by St. Eliza- beth Seton Catholic School students, with species identification markers, and edged with armour stone. “We added mulch to all the trees,” said Grade 6 student Lowen Fleming. And they planted a pollinator garden. “The bees aren’t pollinating as much as they should,” said classmate Julia Simp- son. Larry Noonan, chair of the Altona For- est Stewardship Committee, said the group is delighted with the outcome. “It’s definitely what we proposed,” he said. Noonan won over a crowd of people when he presented the committee’s vision for the project. Groups that sigh up to participate in the Celebrating Sustainable Neighbourhoods program can be made up of immediate neighbours, schools, places of worship, friends, businesses, and existing commu- nity groups. Groups have until the end of November to complete activities to help improve a part of Pickering. At the end of the program, all participants are invited to a celebration, where a winner is chosen by fellow groups through a peer vote to embark on the $10,000 initiative. Noonan has also received positive feedback from local residents. since the project has been completed. “This benefits everyone,” he said. Noonan is impressed with the work of local schools in environmental areas, including the always hard work of the teachers and students at St. Elizabeth Seton. “It’s a very good relationship,” said Noonan, the school’s former principal. Whitaker added the students are able to see the value in the work being done. “Now the students have a sense of own- ership over this site, which is what you want to create,” she said. This is the fourth community enhance- ment project to be delivered through the neighbourhood program. “The neighbourhood program reflects our commitment to an environmental- ly, socially and economically sustainable city. It showcases what can be achieved through partnerships, including that of our Sustainable Pickering contributors,” said Mayor Dave Ryan. Visit pickering.ca/CSN for more infor- mation.

HIP Vodka created in Pickering, distilled in Ontario Kristen Calis KCalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING — A Pickering man is raising a glass as the vodka he and his business part- ner have created will hit the shelves in Janu- ary. HIP Vodka is now available for presale and will be for sale at the LCBO, bars and other licensed establishments in January. The concept was created in Pickering, and the booze was distilled in Ontario. “First of all, I wanted to come out with something that was different and unique and I like vodka. I wanted something that was eye-catching, innovative, different,” said Ray Leighton, the company's CEO. He looked at what other people were buy- ing at the liquor store, and thought he could do a little better. He met with longtime business partner David Robinson in 2012, now the compa- ny’s president, and they first came up with the idea that would eventually turn into HIP Vodka. “It’s been several years,” said Leighton. “It’s like anything, when you think of some- thing ... you’re not sure. In life, things change.” But, they recently came back to the idea, and immediately began discussing how they were going to market the product. “It was all about design, marketing, appeal,” he said. “We thought, we can always create a great taste. We have great taste. But how do you capture the market? It’s hard to bring out a brand locally and globally.” HIP Vodka is also entering the market in Alberta as well as globally in the U.K., Spain, Jamaica and Trinidad. Leighton and Robinson knew they had to come up with a bottle that stood out from the crowd of the hundreds of different vodkas that are on the market. “When you’re buying alcohol you look at what does the bottle look like?” he said. Playing on the word hip, they shaped the bottle to resemble a woman’s hip. After con- sulting several people and companies, and going through an extensive design process, their bottle “is complete, it's unique, I’d say creative, innovative.” The two main creations are HIP Vodka for Him — with a bolder taste — and HIP Vodka for Her, which has a smoother taste. The company currently has watermelon and bubble gum flavours as well. “We are currently working on several new flavours,” said Leighton. Taste tests have gone well. “They love it straight up or mixed," he said. And they’re not stopping at vodka, with plans to also sell items such as rum, whis- ky, wine, beer and even an energy drink all under the same label. Leighton said it was with a lot of thanks to friends, family and the great people he's working with that the business partners were able to get their idea off the ground. “It’s hard to achieve the dreams that you want and it’s taken me and my partners a long time to get to this point,” Leighton said. Despite building a global brand, they won't forget where it all began. "We do want to also contribute back to the community, so once we start going I’m think- ing of having something go back to Pickering or some of the local communities,” he said.

Content is protected by copy-right. Publication Sales Agreement #40052657 They live among us — uncelebrated eco-warriors who visit GTA and Dur- ham Region beaches every day to collect plastic waste. A truly Sisyph- ean task: laborious, futile and largely thank- less. Scientists have been warning us for some time that plastic has entered the food chain and that we are all ingesting it, even through water sources. Plastic debris kills hundreds of thousands of marine animals and birds, outweighs plankton in some areas and threatens eco- system services. Produced to last forever, it is often used once, then carelessly discarded — ending up in streams, lakes, oceans and the sediment of all three. Plastic trash can leak toxins into ground- water. Recycling is energy-intensive and does not diminish demand. Also, plastic can usu- ally only be recycled a few times before it becomes toxic waste once again. Incineration pollutes the air and poisons the soil with toxic ash. So-called “biodegradable plastic” is only effective under certain industrial conditions. Citizen groups are stepping up. StopPlas- tics, along with a contingent of volunteers — armed with buckets and burlap bags — reso- lutely set out on a recent morning for one of the eastern beaches in Samuel Smith Park in south Etobicoke. Several other groups had already spent countless hours combing through the sand and stone. But, they dug deeper, because although plastic will never biodegrade, it breaks down into smaller pieces until it eventually becomes microplastic, then nanoplastic. StopPlastics collected pieces no bigger than a loonie, most of them smaller. In just a few square metres, this small crew managed to pick up a shocking 12 pounds of degraded plastic. Toronto’s Long Term Waste Strategy, the provincial Strategy for a Waste Free Ontario and Durham’s plastic bag recycling program through participating stores are all laudable and promising policy efforts, but we need to move toward outright bans on disposable plastic products. There is simply too much plastic waste in our environment to wait patiently for a collective mindset change. The 2012 reversal of the Toronto ban was an embarrassment to the country. San Fran- cisco has banned Styrofoam takeout contain- ers. The City of Montreal, the State of Califor- nia, Italy, China and several African countries have banned plastic bags. France has even banned plastic cutlery. The GTA and Durham Region should do the same, finally declaring discarded plastic as hazardous waste. But, plastic waste is everywhere. We need massive education campaigns. We need to get to work. Meanwhile, unsung heroes such as the StopPlastics crew will be on the beaches, unable to keep up with the mess, but willing — for now — to try. LETTER TO THE EDITORResident wants to see north Pickering realigned with Uxbridge To the editor: The City of Pickering council embraced an airport in Pickering by a vote of 5 to 2. The two no votes were by the represen- tatives of North Pickering, the region most affected by a proposed airport. By the narrowest margin possible, and by representatives of the area least affected by the proposal, this contentious vote was carried. Many residents of north Pickering feel, as I do, that the time has come to realign north Pickering with like-thinking people in Uxbridge. Our rural way of life and small town out- look has much more in common with our friends in Uxbridge than populous, big city south Pickering. We beg our federal and provincial rep- resentatives to consider this proposal.Gordon Duncan Claremont Getting serious about plasticcOLumn OuR VIEW Every day, a young person in Durham Region is making a positive difference within his or her community. The pages of this news- paper feature numerous stories throughout the year of youth who volunteer their time and go above and beyond to make their com- munity a little better. Doing good can take many forms, from helping out an elderly neighbour without expectation of payment, or perhaps making local parks cleaner, as a group of high school friends in Pickering have done each Saturday since the beginning of this summer. Once again this year, the News Advertiser is involved in a province-wide campaign to recognize the contributions of young people in our community. The Ontario Junior Citizen Award is car- ried out through the Ontario Community Newspapers Association (OCNA), of which the News Advertiser is a member, and spon- sored by the TD Bank Group. It’s our way of saying thanks to youth who are deserving of being commended for their hard work and achievements. So, who can be nominated? Any Ontario resident between the ages of six and 17 who are exemplary in one of five areas: • A person involved in a worthwhile com- munity service • A special young person contributing to their community while living with a physical or psychological limitation • An individual who has performed an act of heroism in the past year • Excellence in achievement, such as the arts or athletics • Good kids who show a commitment to make life better for others and do more than is normally expected of someone their age We invite local residents to take a moment and take stock. Is there a worthy teen who deserves recognition? Is there someone you know who never fails to impress, who vol- unteers in the community, who is motivat- ed to make life better for fellow citizens, the less fortunate, even stray animals? Is there a young adult who has taken heroic actions, or a special young person who has contributed while living with a disability? If someone you know fits the bill, we encourage you to nominate them for a 2017 Junior Citizen of the Year award. We’ll per- sonally present nominees with a certificate of recognition for the efforts and all nominees will be considered for the final 12 Junior Citi- zen of the Year awards.

Public invited to give input on transportation plans for Pickering City in search of vision for transportation priorities PICKERING — The City of Pickering is launching a study to define policies, programs and infrastructure improve- ments required to address exist- ing and future transportation needs in the city. The Integrated Transporta- tion Master Plan (ITMP) will define a city-wide vision for the development of transpor- tation priorities, programs and networks that will guide future municipal transporta- tion investments in an inte- grated manner. The ITMP is a critical document in determin- ing the city’s objectives of pro- moting mobility for all modes of transportation, improving exist- ing and future transportation infrastructure and supporting a vibrant downtown through a multi-model network. The public is invited to visit the study website at pickering. ca/ITMP for study updates, to review study progress and to submit ideas and feedback. Over the course of the study, three public information cen- tres will be held to invite input from the community. The first will be a drop-in format with study team members available to discuss ideas for Pickering’s future transportation system. It will take place on Saturday, Nov. 4 from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Pickering Town Centre, in the Upper Level, near Entrance 2. The mall is located at 1355 Kingston Rd., Pickering. For more information, email ITMP@pickering.ca or call Nadeem Zahoor, transportation engineer, at 905-420-4660, ext. 2213.ADVICEMETROLAND DURHAM REGION MEDIA PRESENTSExpert PUT TRUST IN A LOCAL PROFESSIONAL ...

Am I covered forA HurrIcAne orTornAdo?AA&&QQ A hurricane or tornado is classed as a windstorm, except in very rare situations you have coverage. Basic home policies cover you for fire, windstorm, lightning, hail, falling objects etc... Be sure your insurance provider has reviewed the rebuilding cost of your home at least once every five years to be sure you don’texperience any surprises when under the stress of a loss. Coverageoptions and riders should be reviewed every year. If you have ‘guaranteed replacement cost’ coverage on your homebe cautious and reassure yourself that the Insurer has not ‘capped’that replacement cost value with a maximum payout limit.There is a large provider out there that has a cap which does not truly provide guaranteed replacement cost. Need a second opinion or a review of your coverage? Give our office a call.You will always know to whom you are speaking.

Whitby Courthouse Theatre presents... “It’s not a democracy, it’s a family.” In playwright Steve Galluccio’s comedic drama Mambo Italiano truer words were never spoken. Take two gay men still ‘in the closet,’ add their Italian immigrant parents still clinging to the old ways, toss in two single women, stir in a family secret, shake well, and let the chaos begin. With its neurotic characters and witty dialogue, this touching play is one of the most successful in Canadian theatre.

However, this was a slight increase over the previous month. September also saw an increase in the number of new listings in Durham (1,914), compared to the 1,556 new listings reported in September 2016. The average housing price for September in Durham Region was $578,666, a slight decrease over the previous month, however an increase of 4.25% over the same period last year. Homes listed on the market continue to sell in an average of 23 days. Durham’s condo apartment continues to be strong, with sales up 16% com- pared to the same period last year, and the average sale price rising to $365,397, from the $314,839 reported in September 2016. “Polls indicate that buying intentions over the next year remain strong,” notes Bouma. “Durham Region is still one of the best places to live, work and play. We offer the best real estate value in the GTA.” Bouma added that with Metrolinx’s expansion plans of GO train service to our eastern corridors it will only improve the lives of residents making it easier for them to commute. The Bowmanville GO train extension will open four new sta- tions (two in Oshawa, one in Courtice and one in Bowmanville) and will make liv- ing in the east even more palatable for residents. 2514 Cunningham Blvd, Peterborough Gorgeous 1930 SF "Osgoode. model, brick 2 storey inThompson Bay Estates by Picture Homes, near TrentUniversity and the Rotary Trail.

Whenyouchoose Fabian Waintal There are different levels of fame in Hol- lywood – those who are just starting to climb the ladder, then the stars, the divas and superstars. Barbra Streisand is above all of them. A living legend, nobody can come close to her success as a singer, actress, producer and director. On top of her class in the entertainment world, she won 10 Grammy awards in music, two Oscars in her movies, four Emmys on TV and a Tony award in Theatre. Celebrating 50 years of her professional career, she sat down recently to openly talk about her life and her career at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center. Q: What does it mean to be the most famous star in Hollywood? It’s hard to be in the limelight. I don’t real- ly like stardom. You have to understand that. I really don’t like it and what comes with it. I don’t really like all that. Some people do. Some people really like that. I’m not one of them. Q: Have you thought about writing your autobiography? I’ve been working for two years on my autobiography. It’s very hard for me to write about myself. It’s like, “Been there. Done that.” Now I have to try to remem- ber things, actually, interesting things…I’d rather be directing a film, put it that way. Q: What would the beginning of your autobiography be like? Gosh. I don’t know... I didn’t know my father because I was only 15-months old when he died. But I’ve been reading his writings, his thesis going for a PhD and re- reading recently his thesis “How to Teach English to Juvenile Delinquents and Pris- oners at a Minor Reformatory”. I didn’t know him. I think it’s in the DNA. I think my father was somebody who was on the debating team, French team, and wanted to write but he was interested in psychol- ogy and taught school. Who knows? There are certain things that are kind of mysteri- ous. Very interesting because my mother went to work when my father died. I had no discipline. I remember teaching my moth- er how to smoke a cigarette at 10-years old (laughter). But I always wanted to be a classical Shakespeare actress. Q: What made you want to get into clas- sical acting? I think it’s because I wanted to escape reality. I wasn’t happy. I wasn’t a happy kid. I used to go to the movies a lot, Sat- urday afternoons. I didn’t know that they had time schedules, so I would come in any time of the day (laughter) and see two movies. The only time I ever sat through two movies to see the first one again was to see Marlon Brando. For the first time I was like, “Huh?” And that inspired me. I love the make-believe world – the world of colour. I remember leaving the theatre and going out to the drab hot summer days and thinking, “Oh gosh. Inside the theatre was cold. They had great ice cream. And these movies, movie stars I love. Romance.” That’s how it all began. Q: And the singing part? I remember I was a kid on the block with a good voice. My ID, was “No father. Good voice.” Q: And what was the vision that you had for a career? I remember my mother took me up to audition for W. Wilkins and MGM. Inter- esting, MGM actually did Yentl. So there’s a funny stream attached, right? I was nine, and I thought I’m going to be a star. I’m a person who really believes the power of the will. I think I kind of willed it in a very quiet way. It’s very internal, very deep. I do believe that you can manifest your real- ity. Even later on when I had a career as a singer, people would say, “How do you hold the notes so long?” And I would say, “Because I want to.” I don’t know a tech- nical answer to that question. I think it’s because of my will. Q: Is there any secret code for success? It’s funny because I don’t like crappy criti- cism. I like constructive criticism. I really do. If somebody can show me something that I can do better, I’m all up for it. But what I remember is the bad reviews. I for- get the good reviews. I’m working on this book, and I have a researcher, and she tells me about these great reviews. I say, “What? Where did that come from?” I forget it all, and I remember the bad ones. That’s prob- ably part of the artistic process. You start because, in a way, you don’t feel good enough. And yet, there’s also the end of the scale, which is confidence. It’s a funny thing. You have to have both qualities, I think. The self-doubt and the confidence. Q: The same way that people admire you so much today, who did you look up du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • No v e m b e r 1 , 2 0 1 7 13 AP Mon. to Fri. 9am - 7pm, Sat. 10am - 4pm, Sun. 10am - 3pm *Call or visit store for details. 780 Kingston Rd.

Vimy oaks keep memories growing Hundreds of oak saplings will help to keep alive the memory of the sacrifice made by Canadian soldiers in the Battle of Vimy Ridge 100 years ago. The oak trees being planted today are descendants of acorns collected on the battlefield as a souvenir by Lieutenant Leslie Miller. Shell fire had devastated the landscape but a half buried oak tree pro- vided a remembrance and its acorns were planted by Miller on farmland which is now home to the Scarborough Chinese Baptist Church. He called his farm the ‘Vimy Oaks Farm’. Today, several of the original oaks survive. However, there are no original oaks on the Vimy Ridge site. In January 2015, the process of continu- ing the Vimy Oaks began with profes- sional arborists taking cuttings (scions) from the crowns of the oaks, which were grafted onto base root stock. The saplings are now growing at Connon NVK nurser- iesin Dundas, Ontario, using an acceler- ated method and many have already been planted by organizations through Vimy Oaks Legacy. The oak saplings are offered for sale to organizations that are committed to planting them at commemorative sites such as cenotaphs, town squares, memo- rial sites and parks, heritage sites, schools, military cemeteries and sites, Royal Cana- dian Legions, public locations associated with the First World War, and at sites that communicate messages of universal val- ues and peace. Proceeds from the sale will fund the repatriation of descendants ofthe origi- nal oaks back to Vimy Ridge to promote the memory and legacy of Canadians who fought there 100 years ago. A related proj- ect headed by the Vimy Foundation aims to create the Vimy Foundation Centennial Park, a landscaped planting of 100 Vimy Oak trees beside the Canadian National VimyMemorial Historic Site in France.

Justin Skinner / Metroland TORONTO -- Veteran Ashley Zedner pours a shovelful of dirt on Notre Dame Catholic School’s new Vimy Oak as Beaches-East York MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith holds the tree up. The oak was planted on June 2 to mark the 75th anniversary of the Toronto school, the 100th anniversary of the battle of Vimy Ridge and Canada’s 150th birth- day. to, in the beginning? It was Johnny Mathis. I just thought he was so beautiful. He has dark eyes. I’ll never forget him sing- ing on the Ed Sullivan show when we first got a TV. He had this gorgeous instru- ment, and he was so soul- ful. Q: Was it difficult to find the balance as a mom and your professional career? I did the best I could. You come home, and you bathe your child, and you read stories, you sing with him or her. It’s that connection. I always believe in being honest with my son, and I’m very, very proud of him today. He’s a great student. He’s created an album pro- duced by Quincy Jones... We blame our mothers for this and that. Then you outgrow that and you real- ize life is tough. It’s not easy. As I said, you do the best you can. Q: What´s your own opinion about yourself? Do you see yourself as an actress, a singer, or a director first? I think probably actress only because that’s what I wanted to be. And then I sang because I couldn’t get a job as an actress and then I directed because I couldn’t be heard, you know what I mean? Now, I like being responsible for my work, taking the blame. Now I just want to be a director. Acting is too much trouble. You have to put on makeup. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • No v e m b e r 1 , 2 0 1 7 15 AP 1880 Glengrove Road, Pickering, ON L1V 0C6 905.831.2088 |vivalife.ca Making Today Great!

Denying signs of hearing loss and not actively seeking a solution is largely attributed to the stigma that’s associated with wearing hearing aids. But what many don’t know is that hearing aid technology has come a long way. Gone are the outdated,uncomfortable and noticeably clunky hearing aids. Now,therearesolutionsthatcan be customized to the individual wearing them and some are so discreet no one will even know you’re wearing them! Not being able to fully engage in a social situation can be frustrating. Especially when it means missing parts of a lively conversation because there are too many competing background noises. Asking someone to have to repeat themselvesbecomesembarrassing, and withdrawing from social situations becomes a method of coping. But for many, coping is a way of prolonging the need for hearing aids because they don’t wanttogiveintoshowingtheir age. Fortunately, today’s hearing aid technologies offer the best of both worlds:fully engage in social situationswithout anyoneknowing you’re wearing hearing aids.You can look as young as you feel and remain thelifeoftheparty–hearing with ease and confidence.

Dorothy gets 15 minutes with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau What I love about working with seniors is the opportunity to hear their stories and learn about the experiences that they have had. I would like to tell you about Dorothy. At 107 years of age, Dorothy was as sharp as a tack. Other than a bit of a hearing issue, she was in great health. Dorothy used a walker, but I often saw her toss it aside to dance when the music was right. She had a great sense of humour and a passion for politics. One of my first lessons from Dorothy was about our political system in Cana- da. She said, “You know, back in my day, there were only two political parties. If you were Catholic, you voted Liberal. If you were Protestant, you voted Progres- sive Conservative. That was it.” Dorothy loved to watch question peri- od in the House of Commons on TV. She had very definite opinions about our political system and could debate politics for hours. She was a great fan of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and was an equally great fan of his father, Pierre Elliott Trudeau. Dorothy was such a fan that the team I worked with made it our mission to have her meet our Prime Minister and with the help of a friend, we were able to schedule a Skype call for Dorothy with Mr. Trudeau. This was a highlight for every- one involved. When Dorothy saw Mr. Trudeau and heard his voice, she trans- formed into teenage girl with a crush. It was wonderful to watch and Mr. Trudeau was so gracious with her. He spent about 15 minutes asking her questions about her life and seemed genuinely interest- ed as she told him about her family, her career as a nurse, what it was like grow- ing up in Kingston and her memories of the ending of the First World War. There are many amazing people whose stories I could share. When you next have the good fortune to interact with one of our seniors, take a moment to ask about their lives. You might be amazed by what you learn and you will be better for the experience. — Anne Murphy is the senior's columnist for Forever Young.

Beloved husband of 28 years to Brenda Clark. Loving father of Robin Courtice. Dear brother of Kathleen (Rob) Rattew, Richard (Elaine) Courtice and Patricia (Ron Bezener) Courtice. Fondly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, extended family and devoted friends. Born to the late Jack and Beth (nee Cook) Courtice in Brandon Manitoba on January 26, 1952, Bob grew up in Ajax/Pickering before moving to Toronto, then Port Perry and finally, Port Hope. Admired for his awesome guitar playing and famous for his trademark handlebar moustache, Bob was also a talented cook who loved to share good food, fine wine and laughter. His early occupations included guitar repairing and sign writing. In 1995 he chose to be a stay-at-home-dad and was supportive of Brenda while she pursued a demanding career. A lifelong learner, Bob continued to study and play guitar for most of his life, performing with an eclectic variety of bands over the years and amassing an impressive collection of guitars and recordings. Bob was a fan of motorcycles and hot rods. He also loved working out at the gym and playing tennis. He will be deeply missed. Special thanks to the Central LHIN palliative team and Dr. Mulé. The family will receive friends at the McEACHNIE FAMILY CENTRE, 20 Church St. North, Pickering Village (Ajax), 905-428-8488 on Sunday, November 12, 2017, for an afternoon to celebrate Bob's life from 2:00pm to 4:00pm with remembrances at 2:30pm. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations go to CCN/Hospice Care for construction of the new Northumberland Hospice Care Centre.
