Daycare dilemma CHRIS SIMON chris.simon@simcoe.com TERESA LATCHFORD tlatchford@yrmg.com

Two professionals plus three children equals one unaffordable daycare bill. Liam and Jena Murphy already had their hands full and pocketbooks emptied trying to pay for daycare for their now sixyear-old son Ethan. Then life happened, and twin boys came along. Isaac and Oliver entered the world about two years ago. Once Jena’s maternity leave ended, the family had to make some major life adjustments. Both Liam and Jena had careers - he worked as a nurse and she is employed in an office - but he was, coincidentally, laid off and, when they ran the numbers, it didn’t make sense to seek another full-time job. So for now, Liam stays home with the kids and hopes to pick up part-time work in the fall. "When I pictured my life, I pictured working the job I trained l See ONTARIO’S page 8

Second fatal collision on Hwy. 48 claims third life HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com A second fatal collision in less than a month on the same stretch of Hwy. 48 in Sutton claimed the life of an 82-year-old man Sunday, Aug. 13. Ontario Provincial Police have not released the man’s identity, but confirmed the northbound Subaru he was travelling in crossed the centre line before colliding head-on with a pickup truck around 12:11 p.m. The two occupants of the pickup truck were taken to Southlake Regional Health Centre in Newmarket with non-life threatening injuries. The collision is the second fatal accident on the stretch of Hwy. 48 between Old Homestead Road and Ellisview Road in the past month and one of three ac-

A two vehicle head-on fatal accident happened around noon Sunday on Highway 48 near Old Homestead Road. cidents that occurred on Hwy. 48 on Aug. 13. Emergency crews also responded to a collision at High Street in Sutton and at Lake Ridge Road in Port Bolster that same Sunday afternoon. Earlier this month, the OPP stopped a driver going 151km/h in almost the exact
spot of Hwy. 48 where two men died and three others were sent to hospital after a five-vehicle crash July 27. OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said there have been numerous fatalities on provincial highways throughout the GTA over the past seven days and over 160 fatalities already this year.
Plug won’t be pulled on Pefferlaw Ice Pad roof project HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com A roof structure for the Pefferlaw Ice Pad got a bit of a political Hail Mary after council rejected a staff recommendation to pull the plug on the project earlier this month. Two years after the project and federal grant funding of $315,000 was approved, staff recommended cancelling the project after construction bids came in almost double the approved budget. Initial estimates, the cost of inflation and the expanded scope of the project made the project "no longer feasible for completion" within the approved budget, according to the staff report tabled Aug. 9. The original 100-by-200foot fabric footprint of the structure the Canada 150 grant was based on changed to steel and expanded by 20 per cent in order to include a picnic shelter pad and ret-
rofitted mechanical building. Additional costs not accounted for included bringing the mechanical building up to fire code and expanding the 81,000-litre water tanks required by the Ontario building code to 120,000 litres, at the request of the fire department, in order to help fight fires at neighbouring properties such as the library, Lions Hall and seniors residence. "Since there are no existing on-site sources of water for firefighting for any of these facilities it is in the best interest of the town to appropriately size the tanks with the bigger picture in mind," the report states. "Show me the money to make it happen," Mayor Margaret Quirk told staff, however, despite numerous projects requiring additional monies being deferred to 2018 budget discussions during the past few months. Ward 2 Coun. Dan Fellini agreed the commitment
made to Pefferlaw residents should be kept. "It is the right thing to do and we have to do it," he said. As a result, the project’s current procurement process was cancelled and authority delegated to the chief administrative officer to award the contract. Staff will report back with funding options. The approved total budget, including consultants, geotechnical analysis and roof construction is $786,225 in 2015 dollars, when the project was approved. The lowest quote received to date results in a budget shortfall of $267,175. The town’s landscape architectural planner, Ken McAlpine, said the federal grant, which comes with a March 2018 deadline for completion of the project, should not be in jeopardy, with construction completion estimated for January 2018 "at the latest."
VOLUNTEERING IS A WORK OF HEART
yorkregion.com
“No one is more cherished in this world than someone who lightens the burden of another.”* There are no truer words than these to describe a Hospice Volunteer. Volunteers have been the cornerstone of Newmarket’s Doane House Hospice since 1989, assisting this fully-accredited community hospice with its mission to enhance the quality of life of area residents who are affected by, or caring for an individual with, a life-threatening illness. Doane House Hospice also offers grief and bereavement programs for children and adults. Volunteers are the ‘workforce’ of this vibrant hospice, taking on a variety of nonmedical roles, supporting our clients and families, directly or indirectly, as meets their talents, interests and availabilities. For Trudy Schneider, being a Doane House Hospice Volunteer has been a rewarding and enriching experience for 23 years. “It has been a “life-changing privilege,” she says. “I’ve met so many wonderful people. It’s been an honour to hear their stories, learn about their accomplishments and be a witness to their resilience.” From her perspective, the hospice has “bloomed” since its inception with additional programs for clients, and professional training programs for its Volunteers. Not only has she seen the benefits hospice care brings to clients and family, she’s found it’s brought
purpose, meaning and personal growth in her own life too.” Trudy believes, “I became the person I am now because of my volunteering.” Each volunteer and their story is unique and special. Trudy is one of over 600 individuals volunteering across all 5 York Region hospices, providing essential support to our communities. Doane House Hospice has long-recognized the benefits of community-based hospice services and its philosophy of care for the whole family. Now, in partnership with the new 10-bed residential hospice the continuum of hospice care in York Region will be further enhanced. Volunteers with Doane House Hospice and the Margaret Bahen Hospice for York Region will have additional opportunities to further the positive difference they make as part of an integrated team offering a seamless continuum of palliative and bereavement care support. Recognizing that VOLUNTEERS ARE KEY to the daily operations of the varied hospice programs and services, we are currently recruiting 150+ new volunteers. For more information about how YOU can make a difference as a hospice volunteer, please visit www.doanehospice.org or www.myhospice.ca. Or, meet one of our Volunteers at the Newmarket Main St. Farmers’ Market (August and September.)
Together, we can make a difference and lighten the burden of others. *Joseph Addison 1672-1719

Rolling back the clock A night at the Stardust Newmarket Drive-In SIMON MARTIN smartin@yrmg.com "Dad, is this the only bag of popcorn?" My three-year-old son
Theo was perched in the front seat of our car wolfing down buttered popcorn at the Stardust Newmarket Drive-In in Sharon. It was 8 p.m. We had an
hour and a half to kill before we got to watch the critically lampooned Emoji Movie. Waiting for dusk isn’t exactly something a three-
year-old is keen on doing these days. Cartoons can just be summoned by the all-powerful-force of Netflix on demand whenever a child screams loud
enough. "I think we need four bags of popcorn. One for each of us," Theo said. A trip to the drive-in is like stepping back into
time. A time when there was no Netflix or smartphones or emojis. For the complete story and more photographs, visit yorkregion.com

HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com A $2.6-million investment from the federal government to ensure safe and reliable drinking water for Chippewas of Georgina Island residents living under a long-term boil water advisory was announced Tuesday by Indigenous and Northern Affairs Minister Carolyn Bennett and Chief Donna Big Canoe. "Our government is committed to providing safe, clean and reliable drinking water," Bennett said during the announcement on the island Aug. 15. "Investing in projects like this demonstrates our dedication to ending longterm drinking water advi-

sories for First Nations communities in Ontario." The federal government is contributing $2.6 million to upgrade and expand the First Nation’s water treatment plant via investments made through the Small Communities Fund - a joint initiative between Infrastructure Canada and the Ontario government. The project will ensure the community’s 208 residents will have access to clean, safe drinking water. The drinking water advisory on Georgina Island should finally be lifted once the upgrades are completed, which is expected to be by March 2019. "I am glad Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada is partnering with us
and committing to the rest of the funds needed to ensure that members of the Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation can look forward to clean, safe and reliable drinking water," Chief Donna Big Canoe said. "This is a basic necessity for our members and that is why the First Nation secured over half the funds required from other resources a year ago to get this project." As part of a long-term strategy, the Government of Canada is working with First Nations on sustainable approaches to eliminate long-term drinking water advisories by March 2021 and to prevent new long-term advisories from happening.

ABOUT US
Entrepreneurial skills vital for young people The world young people have grown up into over the past decade or so bears little resemblance to the one the generations immediately preceding it inherited. Rather than graduating from high school or a postsecondary education program and smoothly transitioning into a career that would see them from first-day jitters through to gold watch at retirement, the job market today is marked by fierce competition and seismic changes. Uncertainty, it seems, is the new certainty. And while the employment landscape may never have been quite as straightforward or simple as the second paragraph suggests -perhaps only when viewed through the rose-tinted lenses of nostalgia - the fact remains that charting a career path in today’s job market is an increasingly daunting task. And with many traditional sectors already experiencing disruption from new technologies (bricks-and-mortar retail stores and taxi operations among them) and several others poised for a major shake-up from innovations such as automation (the trucking industry being but one example) navigating a career path will only become more challenging. In fact, nearly 42 per cent of the jobs for which Canadians are currently being paid could be automated using only the technology we have today, according to the Brookfield Institute for Innovation + Entrepreneurship. As such, it’s good to see that there are programs such as the new Youth by Design course offered by the York Region District School Board and York University’s Innovation York, out of its new YSpace innovation centre in Markham, that are encouraging high school students to embrace the spirit of entrepreneurship and "follow their passion." The program allows students to research their ideas and learn about subjects such as business leadership, intellectual property and patent law, while earning school credit at the same time. The teens involved in the Youth by Design course are working on some impressive projects to be sure. Markham’s Natalie Shafik, for example, is creating an app to help students access recipes based on the ingredients they have available, while Bur Oak student Yu Mao is making an app to help keep people connected with their friends and family living abroad. These are great examples of young people turning challenges into opportunities and that kind of can-do spirit will serve them regardless of what the future of work holds. The Youth by Design course and other programs like it, such as Summer Company and the resources offered through the York Small Business Enterprise Centre, should be promoted and made readily available to youth. Jobs and. indeed, entire employment sectors may come and go but entrepreneurial skills are irreplaceable.

• LETTERS & COMMENTARY • Power reports don’t boost conservation Power Stream Hydro efforts in producing the periodic Power Stream Power Report, which ranks my hydro usage against a selection of similar residences, in addition to costing money to produce, has other consequences: One, it makes me feel less caring when I have in fact done many things to help address usage. Two, the report apparently ignores lifestyle differences in the neighbour comparison. Three, it makes me wonder how committed the provincial government is to reducing rates that have increased dramatically over the last number of years, this from recent news reports.
When the effort seems to try to make hydro usage my fault, it seems like obfuscation of the real problem of rates. We are seniors, living in a small house, with limited capacity to update and renew everything, but we have made basic accommodations: Almost all the lights in the house are CFLs or LEDs, and attic insulation has been improved. Our older working air conditioner is connected to the Peaksaver system which allows hydro to switch it off. A powered attic fan is installed to reduce heat buildup and improve cooling performance. We need day comfort at 25.5 Celsius and a running furnace fan to distribute cool air. We cook on our schedule and some of our entertainment is home

We also have a pool, active for about two months of the year, with timed pump hours for two-thirds of the day and using solar heat. So, to the hydro executives that thought they could shame me and others into further conservation, I say not likely. Your efforts could be much better spent in contracting for much cheaper power imports, say from Quebec, or by better handling infrastructure decisions with your provincial partners, like cancelling half-built facilities or retaining ownership of other parts of the infrastructure.

Talk improved understanding of autism RE: What is autism really, June 15 Many years ago, I had the good fortune to attend a very impressive talk addressed to teachers and service providers that Daniel Share-Strom gave at Kerry’s Place. Part of my work involved the authorization of occupational therapy for children with similar issues to his, and I believe his talk improved my understanding of autism, and thus my practice, which in turn affected some children who were considered to be autistic. I wish everyone could hear this man talk because he is unforgettable. Joyce Morris

HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com With only six weeks left until Georgina’s Terry Fox Run, event organizers hope area residents will "team up for Terry" today. "Every dollar counts," says Laurie Pangman-Carriere, who has sent out an appeal at local events, via social media and any other way she can think of for the past month to Georgina’s 45,000+ residents to donate the price of a cup of coffee to help make a difference. "It’s Canada’s 150, so I’m asking for $1.50 from each resident. That would be pretty impressive and it goes a long way." Great improvements have been made in cancer research, treatments, care and life expectancies are dramatically improving in many cases, Pangman-Carriere says, adding progress is not possible without community support. "Public participation,
donations and support make incredible improvements to those fighting cancer today. We all want to see an end to cancer and we need to find a cure. I know that when we do nothing, we accomplish nothing. So the only option is to do something and we’ve got six weeks to pull this off." Pangman-Carriere says she understands disheartened comments about many cancer charities and how some feel there is no cure or that there already is one or that cancer is a business or the world should already have a cure with all the monies raised, but adds she knows in her heart that people living with cancer need our support, time and effort. "I have every faith that
l GET
Georgina can achieve this and continue to raise further funds to find a cure, as Terry Fox wished," Pangman-Carriere says. If you’d like to participate, donate or volunteer for the event, which takes place Sept. 17 at North Gwillimbury Park, 775 Lake Drive North in Roches Point, email info@terryfoxrun.org. You can bike, rollerblade or push a stroller on 1-km, 5-km or 10-km routes at the event, which is wheelchair accessible and dog friendly, and also includes Terry Fox Run merchandise, music, fun characters, a Terry Fox photo stand, kids zone, refreshments, food and much more. Registration is at 8:30 a.m. for a 10 a.m. start.

Ontario’s daycare system needs more than funding l Continued from front
for and am passionate about," Liam said, sitting in the family’s living room as Ethan flipped through Pokemon trading cards nearby. "There’s a feeling of being held back in my career just because of daycare. How are we, as two people who have post-secondary education (and) good careers, struggling to make daycare payments? We’re paying into the system, why can’t it turn around and help us? Financially, it’s not even a conversation. We want to work." Finding the perfect fit when it comes to cost, location and programming is challenging for today’s parents. Experts attribute that to a system that fails to deliver. Ontario’s child care model is so far behind, according to Professor Yvonne Bohr of La Marsh Centre for Child and Youth Research at York University. With the mountains of research data showing the importance of providing quality care for children from 0 to 4 years of age, it leaves her wondering why the government waited until this year to take steps toward a universal child care model. "What we have is not in line with what we know," she added. "Those early years are just as important as Kindergarten so daycare should be an extension of the school system, absolutely." The current child-care model isn’t working because it’s not affordable for all families, low wages make it difficult to attract and retain professional child care employees, and the sector lacks regulation. Cognitive and emotional learning go hand-in-hand in the early years, meaning stable social interactions with a trusted adult encourage learning and professionally trained staff can help guide and prepare children for the school years.

Alejandra Tejada and her four-year-old son Brayden stand outside the Learning Enrichment Foundation where Brayden attends daycare. But some children miss out on the nurturing of that early development because there isn’t available, affordable space at licensed daycares. If quality of care isn’t defined or regulated or professional development isn’t offered to staff to keep up with current best practices, children head into school on an uneven playing field. "There is actual evidence and economic research that shows child care is worth the invest-

ment," Bohr said. "Children who are professionally cared for in the early years have better mental health, lower incarceration rates, require less poverty support and contribute more to the economy." In June, Ontario Child Care Minister Indira Naidoo-Harris unveiled a seven pillar plan including 100,000 more licensed child-care spaces, subsidy funds and no parent paying more than 20 per cent of their income on care. The plan would also offer
20,000 more early childhood educators, plus wage increases and professional development opportunities, defining of quality child care, inclusion plan, annual tracking of system performance and public education on available child-care options. But experts say it’s not enough and that the five-year plan could potentially be abolished should the Liberal government not be reelected next year. The daycare sector is current-
ly facing a recruitment and retention crisis, according to Association of Early Childhood Educators Ontario’s Lyndsay Macdonald. The child-care sector has become one that is difficult to afford to remain working in. "Many of these early childhood educators go to work and can’t afford child care for their own children," she added, pointing out that the AECEO’s current campaign is advocating for fair wages. The median pay for Ontario ECEs is $17.20 per hour but 24 per cent are below that at $15 per hour. Those who have managed to obtain employment with a school board are making $26 per hour, get full benefits and a pension, work fewer hours in a day and get summers off. "This disparity makes it difficult to recruit and retain educated child-care workers and when turnover is high, the quality of care decreases," she said. "Learning happens through care and consistent relationships. If there is turnover, there is no consistency." While she applauds the government for releasing a five-year action plan for child care, she says it falls short. More funding is needed to fill the gaps that have grown so large because 100,000 new licensed child-care spaces are moot without trained staff and parents who can afford those spaces. "You know the system is broken when parents are forced to choose between work and staying home to care for their children," she added. "The funding announcements are a step in the right direction but much, much more is needed. Parents, children and the child-care sector deserve better."

Fall Registration Finding balance with extracurricular activities Even though extracurricular activities are largely positive — even when schedules are packed — parents need to be aware of the diminishing returns of too many activities. This is something called the “threshold effect.” Benefits from extracurriculars can level off when too many activities are being juggled. If a child is experiencing anxiety, sleeplessness or depression, or seems overly stressed, it could be time to reduce students’ time spent doing structured activities. It’s essential that families use the cues given by kids to assess what students can handle. And children should be encouraged to be honest with their parents about their extracurricular activities as well.
Extracurricular activities teach students important life lessons, provide them opportunities to socialize and often stimulate their minds and bodies in ways that differ from the stimulation provided in the classroom. Data from the U.S. Census Bureau states that, in 2014, 57 percent of children between the ages of 6 and 17 participate in at least one after-school extracurricular activity. Children are more likely to participate in sports than clubs or lessons, such as music, dance and language, but each of these activities can be beneficial to students’ development. Students who participate in extracurricular activities may want to limit their participation to 20 hours per week. This is according to a group of professors from Stanford University and Villanova University who have been collecting data on the issue since 2007. In their report “Extracurricular Activity in High-Performing School Contexts: Stress Buster, Booster or Buffer?”, Jerusha Conner and Sarah Miles found that 87 percent of kids who would be considered to have packed schedules were perfectly happy unless they were doing more than four hours a day. The “over-scheduling hypothesis” may be overhyped. This is the concern that too much organized activity participation leads to poor developmental outcomes. This hypothesis also suggests that hectic schedules also undermine family functioning, detract from schoolwork and possibly increase the risk of copycat behaviours and excessive competitiveness. However, in the study “The Over-Scheduling Hypothesis Revisited: Intensity of Organized Activity Participation During Adolescence and Young Adult Outcomes,” researchers J.L. Mahoney and Andrea Vest determined that, controlling for demographic factors and baseline adjustment, extracurricular intensity was a significant

EMPLOYMENT Denise Clarida Employment Consultant
I’m a mature worker, why should an employer hire me? Mature, experienced workers bring a lot to potential employers. Your resume and cover letter can highlight that potential! So ask yourself - does my resume highlight my accomplishments and de-emphasize my age? Are my accomplishments dynamic and do they support my objective? Will my resume cause the interviewer to say “Wow!”? Make sure your resume includes your education and professional development, computer and technical training and any volunteer work. Keep in mind that you don’t need to include every job you’ve ever had. Limit your resume to 1 to 2 pages, use a standard font and keep the size at 11 or 12 points. Your resume should be ready to go in email format. Workshops for mature workers are coming this Fall. In the meantime, arrange a one on one appointment with an Employment Consultant.

Traffic Ticket Advocates By: Chris Buckle My son/daughter got a ticket for G2 with alcohol above zero, how does that affect my insurance? Quite frankly, a G2 with alcohol conviction can be very costly. I find that most young people think they can just pay the fine and be done with it…not so with this charge. Paying this ticket earns them an automatic 30 day licence suspension and then be prepared for them to be treated as an impaired driver by your insurance carrier…that’s right your insurance company treats this as a very serious offence. This is also true for anyone 21 and under. There is strict no tolerance for any alcohol above zero. It is important to know your options…I always recommend that you take advantage of my FREE INITIAL CONSULTATION. When you want Professional Representation on traffic matters, call...

How do I find a good BACKPACK for my child? Wearing an overloaded or incorrectly fitted backpack can often cause a variety of aches and pains to the neck, back and shoulders. Here are some tips to help select the right backpack for your child this Fall: WHAT TO LOOK FOR: • Padded and wide shoulder straps • Proper fit: no wider than the chest; when sitting the pack should not extend higher than the shoulders • Another great option is a bag on wheels that the child can push or pull PROPER USE: • Always wear both shoulder straps and fasten waist and chest straps comfortably tight with minimal slack to avoid gaps between the pack and the body • Distribute the load: choose a backpack with many compartments • The weight of the backpack should never be more than 10% of your child’s bodyweight • Carry the minimum amount possible: be organized and make use of the locker whenever possible unload some contents • Place the heavier objects at the base of the backpack, closer to the spine If your child is complaining of pain and/or you are concerned about his/her posture, come see us at Keswick or Sutton Physiotherapy for all your Physiotherapy, Chiropractic, and Massage needs.

What is Nitrous Oxide? (Laughing Gas) Nitrous oxide (N2O) is simply a gas which you can breathe in. It has no color, smell, and doesn’t irritate. When inhaled and absorbed into the body, N2O has a natural calming affect and only lasts as long as your dental visit. It kills pain and it induces a pleasurable feeling. You will feel a bit light headed and often people get ‘the giggles’ (hence the name laughing gas!). Inhalation sedation is very safe. It has very few side effects and the drugs used have no ill effects on the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, or brain.
A contract is an agreement by two or more capable parties where there is a promise to exchange goods or services in return for a value. To make sure a contract is valid, the law explains that each party must be of sound mind, meaning they have to be able to understand what they are agreeing to, and know that they are responsible for any and all decisions made by signing the contract. Both parties are required to obey the agreement but if either side fails to comply, then that would be a breach of contract. A breach of contract is a very common type of lawsuit. It occurs when a party who signed the contract does not perform their obligations agreed upon on time, fails to meet the terms of the agreement, or does not carry out their obligations at all. The innocent party may be able to take action to remedy the breach, through the courts or otherwise. If you think you, or someone you know, may be entitled to compensation as a result of a breach of contract, contact a lawyer as soon as possible to ensure you do not miss any limitations and/or deadlines for starting a breach of contract lawsuit. If your contract has been breached, book your consultation with Donnell Law Group today to enforce your contractual agreement in a cost-effective and efficient manner.
Is my dog susceptible to heat stroke? All pets are susceptible to heat stroke. Try to avoid hot areas, such as parked cars and being locked in hot rooms.

Proposal: Part of Lots 21, 22 and 23, Concession 7 (NG) Catering Road E/S and W/S, Sutton The Town of Georgina is in receipt of applications submitted by Michael Smith Planning Consultants; Development Coordinators on behalf of AINSLIE HILL I INC. and AINSLIE HILL II INC. for Draft Plan of Subdivision approval to permit the creation of 183 single detached dwelling lots, and an associated application to amend Zoning By-law No. 500 to address various zoning standards and provisions for the development. A key map showing the location of the subject lands is provided below. Pursuant to Sections 34 and 50 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.13, as amended, the Town of Georgina Council considered the above-noted applications at a Statutory Public Meeting on March 23, 2016, and again at a second Public Meeting held on April 19, 2017. The most notable revisions made to the proposed draft plan between March 2016 and April 2017 included an increase of 2 residential building lots (for a total of 185 single detached dwellings) and a reconfiguration of the proposed parkland. At the Public Meeting held on April 19, 2017, Council directed that the applications be brought back before Council at their meeting on May 10, 2017, or a later date should there be significant outstanding concerns from the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA) and/or Council and the public. In this regard, following further discussion with the LSRCA after the April 19th meeting, the applicant has revised the proposed draft plan to include a Special Study Area Block (16.36 ha) on the Ainslie Hill II lands lying west of Catering Road. The purpose of the Special Study Area Block is to delineate an area for floodplain analysis and detailed

Ward Boundary Review In recent months, the Town has been reviewing its ward structure, identifying opportunities for realignment to ensure that each resident is fairly represented at Council. At a recent Council meeting, staff were directed to draft a by-law establishing new political ward boundaries for consideration at its September 6 meeting. The proposed ward boundaries only affect Wards 1, 2 and 3. Residents are encouraged to review the proposed boundaries for these wards and provide any comments they have by September 5. Please visit georgina.ca to view the proposed changes.
Notice of Study Completion Georgina Comprehensive Stormwater Management Master Plan The Town of Georgina, through their consultant Aquafor Beech Limited, has completed the Environmental Assessment for the Georgina Comprehensive Stormwater Management Master Plan. The study was completed to better understand the level of stormwater management service currently provided across the study area (the Town of Georgina), to identify future improvements needed to sustainably develop and manage stormwater infrastructure, and to identify opportunities to reduce the loading of pollutants to Lake Simcoe. The study was completed in accordance with Environmental Assessment Master Plan Approach 1. The recommended approach developed through the EA process includes stormwater management facility retrofits, stormwater retrofits of road right-of-ways, source controls to manage runoff on residential properties, the development of end-of-pipe facilities on public lands and improved stormwater facility maintenance. An Environmental Study Report (ESR) for the project has been placed in the public record for a 30-day review period starting August 17, 2017. The ESR is available for review at the Keswick Public Library located at 90 Wexford Drive, the Peter Gzowski (Sutton) Public Library located at 5279 Black River Road, the Pefferlaw Public Library located at 76 Pete’s Lane, and at the Town of Georgina Civic Centre located at 26557 Civic Centre Road. More information on the project can be found at https://www.georgina.ca/cswmmp. Please direct inquiries regarding this project to Mike Baskerville, Manager of Development Engineering, at ext. 2225 or mbaskerville@georgina.ca.

A volunteer-based group doesn’t think killing cats is the answer to feral cat colonies in Georgina and it got the town to agree with it after council endorsed a two-year trapneuter-release pilot program on Aug. 9. "We don’t like killing and we don’t think killing feral cats is the answer," says the Georgina feral cat committee (GFCC), who, along with PAWS of Georgina, asked council last September to adopt the trap-neuter-release (TNR) program as a means to manage feral cat colonies by reducing reproduction, disease and suffering. Feral cats, as opposed to strays who have had some human contact, are essentially wild and undomesticated. Generally speaking, they are not adoptable and therefore are killed if brought to pounds or shelters. In a TNR program, feral cats are humanely trapped (with box traps), brought to a veterinarian to be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, eartipped (the universal sign that a cat has been neutered and vaccinated) and then returned to their outdoor home. The GFCC has been doing the program on its own time and dime but requested the town formally adopt the methodology to humanely deal with the issue of feral cats. "These volunteer caretakers play a huge role in feral cat management," the town’s manager of municipal law enforcement, Ryan Cronsberry, said. "They are taking drastic steps to break the cycle that, at times, almost feels like trying to stop a leak with a strainer," Cronsberry added. The GFCC and PAWS will work with town staff during the two-year pilot, which will track locations, the amount of cats trapped, surgery and release dates

A 36-year-old Georgina man who smashed a pickup truck into a hydro pole in Pefferlaw Monday night has been charged with blowing more than two times over the legal limit, York Regional Po-
lice Const. Andy Pattenden said. “It was 9:30 last night (Aug. 14), we got a call from Durham Regional Police requesting assistance for a possible impaired driver heading into
York Region,” he said Tuesday morning. “When our officers arrived to the area of Pefferlaw Road and Lakeridge Road, we located a pickup truck that had collided with a hydro pole, knocked down wires and
the truck was out in a field without a driver.” Paramedics responding to the call found the suspect walking down a street in the area, Pattenden said. “The roads were closed
which he failed. (He blew) over two times the legal limit.” The suspect has been charged with impaired driving and having a blood alcohol level over 80 mg, Pattenden said.
due to the live hydro lines across the road so hydro (crews) came to repair those,” he said. “The driver was arrested for impaired driving. He was taken to our 3 District for a breath test,

GIVE US A SIGN When the Pharisees came and tried to test Jesus asking him for a sign from heaven, “He sighed deeply and said, ‘Why does this generation ask for a sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to it.” The fact was that even if they had seen a sign or any number of signs, they still would not have believed because they could not accept that this unlearned carpenter from Nazareth, whose message was so different from theirs, could in any way have a higher status than theirs, let alone be the Messiah. And if they had watched him, they would have seen signs – the feeding of the multitudes, making the blind see and the deaf hear. They would have heard the voice of God say, “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.” (Mark 1:11). They would have seen scripture fulfilled and believed in the resurrection. They chose not to see the signs and so no sign was given to them. In the same way, if we just care to open our eyes and our hearts to look, we will see signs happening to show that God is still in control and that Jesus is coming to judge the world. But if we don’t want to see the signs, they won’t be given to us and we will be taken by surprise and be unprepared for the return of Jesus. Watch then, because you do not know when your Lord will return.

No matter what the future holds, Memories good or bad, The memory of you will always be, The best memory I could have. Because you have given me, A feeling that cannot be defined, And this feeling will remain with me, Until the end of time. For there is a place within my heart, The sun will always shine through, Always I have a thought or a memory of you. I miss you Maggie Love your husband Al
