Durham regional chair John Henry was on hand to swear-in the board's 2019 council. "I'm real excited to be here today. I've had the op- portunity to be a chamber member for more than 30 years. I know what they do," Henry said. He noted Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan was at the event and "he is a cham- pion for a Pickering air- port. Durham Region has the opportunity to build the first of its kind, a car- bon-free airport. "It's Durham's time," Henry said. "To Mayor Ryan, it's my commitment to work with you to make it happen. You work with us to drive that message not just to Queen's Park, but all the way to Ottawa." An airport would create 20,000 high-paying jobs, he said. "Don't miss the opportu- nity. It won't be there for another 10 years," Henry added. In her acceptance ad- dress, Ashton said, "I'm happy to be returning as president of the Ajax-Pick- ering Board of Trade. We had an amazing year in 2018. In 2019, we look for- ward to focus on things im- portant to you." Joining her on the board's council are chair Shannon Moore, vice-pres- ident Tracy Paterson, trea- surer Frank Barrese and corporate secretary Jac- quelyn Tanner. Also on the board coun- cil are Analiese St. Aubin, John McLellan, Melanie Walls, Patrick Doyle, Glen McFarland, Adrian Neely, Lisa Patel, Alicia Piggott and Gordon Steven. Municipal representa- tives on the council are Andrew Poray of Ajax and Fiaz Jadoon of Pickering. In a statement, Ashton noted, "I am very proud to be staying on as president of the Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade for a sec- ond term. In the year ahead, we will continue to connect and support our members, by offering in- formative and engaging events. As the voice of business in our communi- ties, we will also continue to work on important ad- vocacy pieces, including on transportation, taxa- tion, employment, and mental health." In recognizing Chris Vale for his work on the board's transportation task force, Ashton stated, "Without this individual, there's no doubt Durham wouldn't be represented." Vale said, "This is an amazing honour. Thanks, but I don't do it alone. I want to echo Mr. Henry. We will advocate together that the airport comes to Pick- ering." Moore said of Ian McCutcheon, a member of the board's golf committee, "This guy knows how to light a fire under his com- mittee." McCutcheon said it was "an honour to win this award. I dedicate this to my mom and dad. They always gave so much to the com- munity and I wanted to do the same. I enjoy helping the community and bring- ing people together." Linda Flynn was ho- noured for her contribu- tions to the board's council and governance commit- tee. "It's critical to the board's success," Ashton stated. "There's no doubt the board of trade is in the strategic place because of her." Flynn wasn't able to at- tend. Moore recognized Ed- ward Lam for his work on the ambassador commit- tee, saying, "He has a knack for making people feel com- fortable." Lam said when he start- ed his company 20 years ago, the only ally he had was the board of trade. "I retired at the end of 2017 with a lot of you as my customers. I feel so much at home giving back to you," Lam said. Speaking of Jacquelyn Tanner, Ashton said, "I would be hard pressed to meet any member who hasn't been met by her smile. She's a wonderful person." A longtime realtor, Tan- ner was recognized for her contributions to the board council, government rela- tions and ambassador com- mittees. "I've been blessed by many amazing members. Mr. (Joe) Dickson himself, he was the first one to get me involved in the com- munity, with the Ajax Home Week and Ajax Trade Show," Tanner said. "I'm so proud to stand among you." Don Terry, the co-chair of the Durham ParaSport Games, which is staging the Ontario ParaSport Games from Feb. 8 to 10, said he urged board mem- bers to get involved with the games, which will fea- ture about 350 athletes in 11 different sports. "I'm so proud at the way the host community has welcomed the games. They've stepped up," Terry said. He noted organizers had to shut down the volunteer portal on the website "be- cause we had so many."

Proposed Modifications to the Project Recent improvements in trenchless technologies have allowed the Region to propose a new alignment for the planned forcemain that crosses Krosno Creek as shown in the Study Area map below.This new alignment is anticipated to reduce environmental impacts and reduce the need for the mitigation measures detailed in the 2008 Class EA.After crossing the creek, the proposed alignment would generally follow the previously approved alignment.

DURHAM - Work is on track for several new school builds and other Durham District School Board construction pro- jects, according to a quar- terly report that went to trustees on Jan. 21. The main structure of a new elementary school at Greenville Avenue and Clearbrook Drive in north Oshawa is almost finished and brick installation is underway. The school is set to open in September 2019. Tender document prep- aration is nearing comple- tion for three projects set to open in September 2020 - an elementary school in Whit- by, a French immersion el- ementary school in Ajax and the rebuild of Beaver- ton Public School and Tho- rah Central Public School. Other DDSB projects in progress include the con- struction of three new child care spaces at Altona Forest Public School set to be finished in September 2019, and new child care spaces at Romeo Dallaire Public School with occu- pancy expected in July 2019. The design of a youth hub at G.L. Roberts Colle- giate and Vocational Insti- tute is completed and prep- arations are underway for tender.

The reason your home did not sell may have nothing to do with your home or the market. In reality, your home may have been one of the more desirable properties for sale. So Why Didn’t Your Home Sell? This year many of the homes listed for sale never sold at all, and many sellers found that there was a tremendous amount a homeowner needed to be educated on to sell their home for top dollar in the shortest time period. Don’t risk making the wrong choices and losing both time and money on your investment. Before you hire a realtor, know the right questions to ask to save you time and money. Industry experts have prepared a free special report called “How to Sell a House that Didn’t Sell” which educates you on the issues involved.

Advertising Feature ThisreportiscourtesyofMikeHogan,Salesperson,Re/maxRougeRiverRealty.Notintendedtosolicitbuyersorsellerscurrentlyundercontract.CopyrightCP(2017) Where to turn When your home doesn’t sell DURHAM - What if you were a student tasked with making a brochure for a class assignment - and it needed to be printed in col- our for full marks? What if you didn't have a colour printer at home, or even a computer? What if your family didn't have a vehicle to drive you somewhere that had computers or printers to use? That scenario is just one example highlighted in new research that looks at how poverty affects education. The Durham District School Board partnered with Brock University on the project, which started in 2016 and wrapped up in Au- gust 2018. Darlene Ciuffetelli Park- er, who works in the faculty of education at Brock, con- ducted lengthy research in- terviews at G.L. Roberts CVI, Pine Ridge Secondary School and Brock High School, where various types of poverty - multi-genera- tional, new Canadian and rural - are significant fac- tors. She spoke to students, parents, school staff and community workers, gath- ering "personal narratives" that paint a picture of what day-to-day life is like in each school. Her findings - along with other research on poverty, education and school best practices - have been turned into a new DDSB document called Positive Youth Devel- opment Strategy, which in- cludes recommendations for schools. "Assuming that all fami- lies have resources for chil- dren and youth at the ready, is simply not true or sus- tainable for school systems to continue in their poli- cies," Ciuffetelli Parker says. Recommendations in- clude: offering professional development on the topic of poverty; offering tutoring and peer-tutoring programs in schools; reconsidering school policies and rules that "strip dignity from youth"; developing arts pro- grams that are accessible for all students in the school board; considering more funding for at-risk youth with learning disabilities; and reforming policies on health services and screen- ings in schools. Staff at the schools in- volved in the research say poverty has an impact on every aspect of student life. Speaking at the DDSB's Jan. 21 board meeting, Chris Barrowclough, vice-princi- pal at Pine Ridge Secondary School, says poverty might mean a student picking up as many hours as possible at a part-time job - at the ex- pense of their school work - or not being able to afford to join a sports team. He says it often looks like silence and isolation. "There are students in our schools who go un- heard. They say nothing when their peers plan to grab lunch at the mall, dis- cuss the latest phone, laptop or game," he says. "They say nothing when we ask them to come out for the team, or when we ask them why they keep missing class. They say nothing because they feel that they must remain silent to protect themselves from the embarrassment of their situation." Barrowclough says the research project created an opportunity for students to talk openly about their lives. Alison Evanoff, princi- pal at G.L. Roberts CVI, says the DDSB is already taking steps toward levelling the playing field for students, pointing to the distribution of Chromebooks for stu- dents to use at home and at school as a "huge game changer." She says getting to know students and creating con- nection with them, is a key factor in successful out- comes - and it's free. "One of the biggest, most powerful determinants for kids' success ... is a caring adult at the school," Ev- anoff says. "What I need to do as a principal is get the staff on board with con- necting with your students in a positive way. Greet them at the door. Say 'Hey, how was your weekend?'" A DDSB report says stu- dents from families earning less than $30,000 per year score up to 30 per cent lower on provincial testing than students from families with a combined income of $100,000 per year. The Positive Youth De- velopment Strategy will be shared with DDSB high school principals this month. HOW POVERTY IMPACTS EDUCATION: THREE DURHAM HIGH SCHOOLS PART OF RESEARCH PROJECT Alison Evanoff, principal at G.L. Roberts Collegiate and Vocational Institute, chatted with some students at the school Jan. 24. The Durham District School Board recently partnered with Brock University on a research project that looks at how poverty impacts education. Interviews were conducted with students, staff and community members at three DDSB high schools impacted by poverty including G.L. Roberts.

He wanted it to be more colourful, more welcom- ing. Soon, plans were in the works for a graffiti style mural that would focus on mental health. But Jacob never got to see the finished work of art - in May 2018, he died sud- denly at the age of 20. One of his quotes is now included in the mural, a lasting legacy at a school that his family says made a huge impact on him. "Life is a galaxy of won- ders, a solar system of mis- steps, but each of us are a universe of success." Diagnosed with epilepsy as a teen, Jacob struggled at a regular high school. There were frequent sei- zures, medications that made him drowsy, class- mates who didn't under- stand and picked on him. His parents say Durham Alternative Secondary School (DASS) - a Durham District School Board pro- gram that lets students up to age 20 earn high school credits in an alternative setting - was a breath of fresh air for their "incredi- bly smart" son. "Before that, we didn't even know DASS existed. And thank God it did," says Jacob's mom, Debbie Kid- dey. "We really want it to be known what this school did for him." She says Jacob met "amazing" teachers at DASS who inspired and mentored him. "His marks were going up and up and up," says his father, Steve Kiddey. "He finally started feel- ing good about himself again." Just as he was looking ahead to attending college and getting his driver's li- cence, Jacob suffered a sei- zure and died. His death left his family - and those who knew him at DASS - in shock. Daphne Marsella, a teacher at the school, de- scribes Jacob as a "brilliant human being," who was wise beyond his years. Part of her role at DASS when he attended, was to help students re-engage in school. "I would help get them interested in coming to school again and realizing their full potential and the fact that they are gift to the world," she says. Jacob's family says Mar- sella was able to connect with him and get him excit- ed about learning and what his future might hold. "If he wasn't at school, she would call him, ask him where he was. Just knowing someone cared if he was there ... it made a difference," Steve Kiddey says. DASS student Sean O'Reilly met Jacob in 2017 and says he was smart, fun- ny and easy to talk to. He remembers his friend reading, playing chess, talking about hock- ey and listening to a play- list of 70s and 80s rock - but more than anything, O'Reilly remembers Jacob as a good listener who cared about people. "If you talked to him for a few minutes or hours, you just knew that he cared about your day and that you were loved," he says. "Jacob is a reminder to me to show how much I love the people around me, even if it's just for a minute in my day." The mural at the DASS location in Oshawa was completed with the help of a grant from the province and two local graffiti art- ists who assisted students with the art work. "When people walk in and see it, they often ask about it," Marsella says. "Jacob would have loved that it's starting conversa- tions." DURHAM YOUTH LEAVES BEHIND LASTING LEGACY AT THE SCHOOL THAT CHANGED HIS LIFE Daphne Marsella, a teacher at Durham Alternative Secondary School, with a mural her class created at the school on Jan. 24. Jacob Kiddey died last spring at the age of 20 after struggling with epilepsy for many years. He had a difficult time at a regular high school, but when he started attending DASS it changed his life. Jacob helped plan the mural at the school but died before it could be completed. The mural is now done and includes a quote from him.

AJAX OPTICAL 3 LOCATIONS FOR QUALITY & CHOICE OR VISIT US ONLINE AT ajaxoptical.com DURHAM - A man ac- cused of arranging the mur- der of his wife again testified he had nothing to do with the crime. David Knight, 46, said he wasn't aware that another man had murdered Carmela Knight in the family's Peb- blestone Crescent home on Sept. 15, 2014. Knight has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, arson and conspiracy to com- mit murder. The Crown alleg- es Knight hired an acquain- tance, Graham MacDonald, to carry out the killing. Knight agreed when Crown prosecutor Paul Murray said Tuesday morn- ing in court that Knight had previously testified he was "wholly, completely un- aware" that MacDonald had killed Carmela. "You had no inkling or any involvement in the death of your wife?" Murray asked. "That's correct," Knight replied. "You had no knowledge of who murdered Carm?" Mur- ray asked. "Correct," Knight said. Carmela, 39, was found in the burnt-out garage of the home. She was in the pro- cess of divorcing David at the time of her death after dis- covering he'd been involved in a lengthy affair with a woman in Florida, court has heard. She died just days be- fore a scheduled family court hearing at which she was seeking custody of the couple's two sons. The basis of the Crown's case against David comes from an investigation dur- ing which MacDonald con- fessed to undercover police officers he murdered Car- mela. MacDonald said he carried out the killing after being promised a $100,000 payday by David Knight. "I had nothing to do with Carm's death," Knight said Tuesday, telling his lawyer, Marco Sciarra, "I would nev- er have anything to do with harming Carm." Knight testified on Fri- day that he wasn't aware that Carmela's death was being investigated as a homicide. "You didn't know what happened in the garage be- cause you were 40 kilo- metres away in a hockey rink. Early on, you knew it was a murder investiga- tion," Murray charged. "Not in the first week, no," Knight said. The trial continues in Oshawa.

The Occasional Use On- Street Parking Permit Sys- tem allows residents and visitors to get a 24-hour parking permit for residen- tial streets. The permit provides an exemption from the maxi- mum three-hour parking limit and allows vehicles to be parked on residential streets from 3 to 6 a.m. Resi- dents can get up to 12 per- mits a year per licence plate and each permit is valid for 24 hours. Multiple day and plate permits can be issued at one time for us- er convenience until maxi- mum permits are met. "We are excited to launch our new one-year trial period of the Occa- sional Use On-Street Park- ing Permit System and to provide enhanced custom- er service to our residents. Whether you have visitors staying overnight or are doing driveway repairs, this new, free occasional permit system aims to pro- vide temporary parking re- lief for residents," said De- rek Hannan, manager of bylaw service for the town. Permits are available at ajax.ca/parkingpermit or on the town's mobile app; AppJAX. For added conve- nience, permits will be is- sued electronically, and are automatically attached to the licence plate, no print and display required. Permits aren't valid or won't be issued during ac- tive snow events, which would include the day(s) before, during, or after a major event, when plowing and salting are taking place. Parking restrictions are still in place for the follow- ing areas: • Areas where on-street parking has been prohibit- ed under the traffic bylaw; • All regional roadways regardless of classification such as Taunton Road, Westney Road North and South, Kingston Road East and West, Bayly Street East and West, and Salem Road North and South; • The town's Type B arte- rial roadways such as Church Street, Rossland Road, and Salem Road North of Taunton; • It is the vehicle owner's responsibility to park le- gally, as all others provi- sions of the town parking bylaws will apply (10 me- tres from an intersection, three metres from a fire hy- drant, one metre from a driveway, will still be en- forced); • No commercial vehi- cles in residential neigh- bourhoods. This includes vehicles longer than seven metres and tow trucks, as these vehicles remain pro- hibited in residential areas regardless of whether a permit is obtained; • Areas identified as a fire route.

Title sponsor:Presented by:Media sponsors: Our newest instalment of Canada's Food Guide was launched in Montreal, on Tuesday, Jan. 22, by Federal Health Minister Ginette Pe- titpas Taylor. This food guide takes a modern ap- proach to communicating nutrition information to consumers, health profes- sionals and policy-makers. On the brand-new Health Canada website there is a suite of resources, includ- ing information related to healthy food choices, eating habits, recipes, tips for meal planning, and nutrition in- formation for individuals of all ages and stages of life. The new web application will allow Canadians to ac- cess the food guide from their tablets, smartphones or computers to get the right information in the right format wherever they are. The new food guide in- cludes videos and action- able advice that will help Canadians apply the di- etary guidelines in their daily lives. In a nutshell, here is what I love about the new food guide: This food guide focuses not only on what to eat, but there is a new and signifi- cant emphasis on how we eat. This food guide encour- ages us to cook at home more often, to enjoy meals with friends and families, and to eat mindfully. The food guide encourages us to limit foods that are highly processed, high in sodium, added sugar and saturated fat. We are also encouraged to use food labels to help us make healthy food choices and to be aware of the influ- ence that food marketing has on our decisions about food and eating. For the first time, we see food groupings, instead of food groups, and the focus is on proportions of food, rather than specific por- tions. There are no recom- mended serving sizes in the new guide. A healthy meal contains a variety of foods from three key food group- ings: vegetables and fruit; whole grains; and protein foods. A plate snapshot of the food guide provides at-a- glance information on what and how to eat. Aim to fill half your plate with fruit and vegetables, one quarter of your plate with whole grains and one quarter of your plate with protein-rich foods, in- cluding dried beans, le- gumes, meat, fish, poultry, milk, cheese, eggs and yo- gurt. The new food guide en- courages us to consume plant-based proteins, more often. I love that the prescrip- tive serving sizes are gone! We need to move away from a culture of weighing, measur- ing and counting what we eat, and to focus our atten- tion on the overall quality of our diet and the enjoyment of eating. Water is encouraged as the beverage of choice, for all of us. We are encouraged to decrease our intake of all sugar-sweetened beverages and to be mindful of our use of alcohol. The overall focus is on a healthy pattern of eating, not just individual nutri- ents or specific servings of foods. This food guide is much more in line with how we actually eat. I encourage everyone to explore the new food guide website, try some of the dietitian-ap- proved recipes, and check out the huge array of free healthy-eating resources. Later in 2019, Health Canada will be releasing Canada's Healthy Eating Pattern for health profes- sionals and policy-makers. -Andrea Miller is a consulting registered dieti- tian who emphasizes that healthy eating should be good, nourishing and deli- cious.

For most of the drive, I put the engine and steering on Sport and Comfort for the chassis (dampers), because the road surfaces were at the freezing point, thus no use pushing things too far. In a city or cruising on the highway, Comfort is all you really need. A lot of cars and trucks these days have a combination of Eco/Normal/Sport performance setting modes, but on the Competition Sedan you can really feel the differences. Comfort is the default setting, but toggle to Sport Plus and you can see the tach needle jump and the steering wheel tightens in your hands. At idle, that big V8 sounds like a North Sea trawler. As you accelerate the note begins to rise and, when you stomp the pedal, there’s the wonderful bellow you can only get from a big-bore V8. This is a big (4,370 lb) and long (195.5 in) sedan, but the outward vision from the driver’s seat lets you know where the four corners are, which helps during high- speed cornering. Because of road conditions I didn’t attempt to put the torque vectoring to the test, but I know from driving the M5 last year about this time in the California desert, entering and leaving a bend feels much more solid, which inspires confidence. When it comes to stopping, the vehicle is fitted with low weight M compound brakes, featuring six-piston floating calipers and perforated inner discs and single-piston floating calipers. Carbon ceramic brakes are optional. But it’s not all about power, the M5 Competition is a very sumptuous place to be with available full Merino leather seating, the Bowers and Wilkins Diamond Sound System ($4,900) and the discreet Ambient Air Package ($400), which is a set of aroma ampules which can be added to the climate control system. And then there are a host of little things on the available Premium Package ($6,500) such as side and rear sunshades, soft close doors, ventilated seats with massage function for driver and passenger, individual BMW reading lights, wireless charging with extended Bluetooth/USB/ WiFi Hotspot and automatic trunk. If you’re thinking about getting the ultimate from the “Ultimate Driving Machine”, the 2019 BMW M5 Competition Sedan is the answer. What’s Best: A marvelous blend of go and luxury in a handsome four-door package. What’s Worst: You’ll rarely have the chance to experience what this car can do without seriously breaking the laws in this country. What’s Interesting: The M5 Competition is one of the first two of a burgeoning new niche inside the top of the feeding chain M division.
