A disagreement between York Pride Fest and the Town of Richmond Hill has led to not just one, but two Pride events in York Region this summer.

For four years, the region’s Pride parade has taken place on Yonge Street in the heart of Richmond Hill, but this year parade organizers, feeling snubbed by the local business community,

have packed up their rainbow flags and headed north to Newmarket.

Pride Fest spokesperson Jacob Gal hopes the town’s Main Street will be the perfect venue for a family-friendly parade and afterparty at Riverwalk Commons on June 17.

Meantime, another organization, PFLAG York, is working with the Town of Richmond Hill to create a separate Pride event June 3 in a new location in Rich-

mond Hill, adjoining the Elgin Barrow arena "This is a new initiative for us," said Amanda Knegje, president of PFLAG, the region’s LGBTQ support, resource and education network.

"We’ve always been very supportive of Pride Fest . It’s great seeing growth, and multiple events, especially when it involves both north and south York Region."

Earlier this year, Richmond

Hill had informed Pride Fest that the parade could not take place in its usual spot on Yonge due to traffic issues, costs to the town, impact on local business and poor attendance.

Instead, the town offered an alternate route: a side street in the village core and nearby park.

Since 2013, the Town of Richmond Hill provided support to the parade and was the first in York

Minimum wage going to $11.60

Stouffville Sun-Tribune | Thursday, March 30, 2017 |

TIM KELLY tkelly@yrmg.com Ontario is boosting its annual minimum wage for workers to $11.60 per hour from $11.40 effective Oct. 1.

It marks the fourth annual minimum wage increase for full-time workers

since the province announced annual increases would be implemented starting in 2014.

The government said it has raised full-time minimum wage incomes by $2,782 per year over the past four years. The general minimum wage has jumped

from $6.85 in 2004 and was frozen from 1996-2003.

Minimum wage annual increases are tied to Ontario’s Consumer Price Index (CPI), a measure of inflation in legislation that was passed in 2014. They are announced for Oct. 1 annually

by April 1 each year.

JOHN CUDMORE jcudmore@yrmg.com You’ve probably heard how 50 is the new 30.

Well, it might well be that the new 50, or even 55, is now somewhere near 70 years of age.

Long gone is an expectation that adults must slow down and curtail activities when 55 candles need be extinguished on a birthday cake. Just because that was the case a couple generations ago doesn’t make it so now.

The rules of play are changing as baby boomers age. Folks may be getting older, but they still like their fun and games, and want to be active more than any previous generation. This a significant power-wielding group that often gets what it demands.

In short, the generation that created old-timers and masters sports is getting older. And the over-55s are an extremely large and growing group.

It is not only fitting, but obligatory, that municipalities listen and react to those demands.

"We are very aware of a growing senior and older adult population," says Mary Creighton, director of recreational services for the past seven years for the City of Markham. "One thing we knew we had to do was have an older athlete policy and we’re doing that right now.

It’s how we need to move forward and how to deal with an aging population."

Recreation directors in municipalities across the region meet quarterly to exchange ideas regarding trends in activities and needs. It should be no surprise that older adults’ needs are high on the list of priorities.

Boomers force municipalities to alter their game

Steve Somerville/Metroland

(Clockwise from top) An overview of popular pickleball action at the Pan Am Centre in Markham; Ellanna Whitaker of Newmarket and her pickleball partner, Holly Walker of Markham, both lunge for a ball hit over the net at the Pan Am Centre in Markham; Connie Green reacts to her bowl missing the jack.

Watching are Keswick Club 55 carpet bowling competitors Elsie Harrington (from left to right), Joe Smyth, Rocco Di Mambro, Carol Klahm and Ren Gazley.

Creighton points to an integrated leisure services master plan unveiled in 2010, which included sensitivity and sensibility toward a rapidly aging population.

That strategy works in sync with the Region of York’s strategies for seniors’ needs and issues, including housing and transit. Markham’s five senior adults clubs have approximately 4,800 members. And many more figure to be on the way.

"We know we have to get ready for growth in that age group and one strategy is becoming an age-friendly community," said Creighton.

Markham’s facilities are fully accessible. Programming includes an extreme range of activities from cards and crafts to more physically demanding

sports such as volleyball, she said.

Sometimes it is as simple as redesigning playing surfaces with lines corresponding to the introduction of new activities.

For instance, the Aariin Community Centre and Library, due to open in Markham this fall, will include lines for pickleball on its court surfaces, in addition to traditional court sport lines.

In Newmarket and Georgina, at least one set of two tennis courts in each municipality have been reconfigured into pickleball courts.

The racquet sport combines elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis, but is played on a smaller surface and a lower net.

"Pickleball is a growing sport and one of the fastest

growing in North America," said Newmarket director of recreation and culture, Colin Service, noting the conversion in 2016 of two tennis courts into six pickleball courts. "We had a demand to provide a facility and this facility was the right size for six pickleball courts.

"It was the perfect storm of several factors coming together. There is nothing on the books right now, but we are always ready to adapt (to demand)."

Service points out the municipality is not simply acting impulsively, but based on needs gathered through interaction with citizens. It doesn’t always mean bringing into action bulldozers and moving the earth.

It’s noteworthy that municipalities’ activities maga-

zine unfailingly include a section dedicated to activities for older athletes.

"For our recreation playbook we did a lot of research and consultation," said Service. "As baby boomers age, they don’t always want program-specific facilities as much as something to do that is age-specific.

"We have added a lot of group fitness classes, so it’s less about hard impact classes and toward full body and core conditioning. Stuff that is a lot easier on the joints."

Georgina has been an avid booster of sports for seniors and has hosted Seniors Games events regularly since 1995.

Georgina has seniors centres, or Club 55 facilities, in Keswick, Sutton and Pefferlaw. Additionally, a pro-

posed multi-use recreation facility in the south end of Keswick will be designed with seniors’ needs in mind.

"Georgina has one of the highest rates of seniors’ participation," said director of recreation and culture Robin McDougall. "We are responding to this very active group. It’s now a more active group than ever and we have to be more creative to meet their needs.

The regular standbys such as cards, billiards and darts are sharing the spotlight with carpet bowling, shuffleboard and yoga, among other activities.

"It’s definitely a more active (age group) than even 15 years ago," said McDougall.

"It’s a younger senior that wants to be more active."

The message is plain and simple: Play on!

19 on the Park presents ’Cinderfella’ ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com What if Cinderella was a boy?

The Lebovic Centre for Arts and Entertainment (19 on the Park) presents Cinderfella, a comedy play based on the classic story of Cinderella - but with a male protagonist instead.

Critically acclaimed writer and performer Mike McMurtry offers the one-man show playing all the traditional characters. McMurtry has had two of his shows produced for television and has made short films that aired on the Comedy Network and CBC. He’s curated Cinderfella to offer moral lessons to his audience - who are generally students between Grade 1 and 6.

The play aims to teach kids about empathy, honesty, optimism, integrity, self-discipline, responsibility and humility. Its theme is "taking responsibility for one’s actions, identifying strengths and weaknesses of character."

McMurtry’s production has been praised by several schools across Ontario as well as many principals and teachers. The play runs for approximately 45 minutes, followed by an optional question and answer period after.

19 on the Park will host the show on Sunday, April 2 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $20 (tax included) or $70 for a family of four. To purchase tickets, visit nineteenonthepark.com or call the box office at 905-6402322.

We're going back to the 70's on this one.

After much debate over how to properly construct and layer a Club Sandwich, we think we got it right. There are several key points: using our nitrate-free turkey to give a more quintessential turkey flavour, using our smoked bacon, seasoning the tomatoes with salt and pepper, toasting all the layers of bread enough that they have a little crunch yet are soft on the inside, and most importantly not skimping on the mayo. I just had one for breakfast and it was truly amazing!

I’m a big fan of Arctic Char, it’s always struck me as the perfect compromise between a trout and a salmon in both size and fattiness. We’re trying a new variety this week, sustainably raised in the Yukon. The colder waters give the fish a firmer flesh and higher fat content (juicier) than our regular fish. Slow-roasting this fish will keep it ultra-moist and flavourful. I like to combine equal parts mayo and a grainy mustard (the Peppercorn Mustard from Sarafino works perfectly here) along with fresh tarragon, dill and lemon zest, liberally coating the fish before roasting it for 30 minutes in a 300-degree oven.

PANCETTA

At the Ontario Meat Packers Awards last year (where we took home some serious hardware might I add…) we had the fortune of meeting Chef Gabriel from Paginelli’s, a restaurant/deli/butcher/just-about-ever ything-foodrelated. Both he and his product deeply impressed us, so we started carrying some of them. As it’s in the city and roughly on my commute home, last week I thought I’d save a delivery guy a trip and pick up our order myself. Boy, was I ever in for a treat! He gave me a tour of his place, which is wicked cool!

They make everything the old-fashioned way, whole animal butchery and all that jazz, aging without any shortcuts, letting me sample everything I could lay my hands on and then cooking me dinner (a wild boar ragu over homemade pasta, which was to die for!).

The product that really blew me away was their Pancetta.

Sourced from Berkshire pigs, it’s salty, NOW relatively lean (as far as pancetta goes), an excellent cold cut and great to cook with… think Carbonara! Ladies and gentlemen, this /100g is a winner! Reg. $5.49/100g

SAUSAGE VEAL

Last year when struggling to think of a sausage special, our veteran stalwart behind the meat counter, ‘Turkey Al’ Gamblin, suggested we bring back an old classic, our Veal Sausage.

TURKEY NEWS!

We have some bad news, and some good news about our Turkeys…………and first the bad! After more than 50 years in business, our turkey has decided to ‘hang ‘em up’ and retire. His have been the best turkeys available to us, bar none, and the turkey business is has been a large part of our business over the years, as any of you who have stood in the turkey pick-up line would know.

And now, the good news. After a lot of digging, interviewing, farm visits, visits to us, country lunches with farmers, and befriending Elsa, a beautiful Lab farm dog, we have a supplier of FreeRange Turkeys from the Palmerston area. And there is even more good news. Since they happen to own a feed mill or two, there is total control over the feed, resulting in that plump, nicely finished bird of the same style of those of old. This Easter marks the beginning of our new business relationship with Elmcreek Farm, and we look forward to many more. Evan

ABOUT US

Are tougher fines required for distracted drivers?

The symbolism was perhaps a bit heavy handed, but the message was crystal clear.

In the continuing effort by police to convince drivers that texting or talking on cellphones while behind the wheel can be disastrous, Toronto police put a hearse into service as an unmarked vehicle on Feb. 21.

The grim visual, part of a weeklong effort to combat distracted driving in the city, was intended to convey the message to motorists that using mobile hand-held devices could land you or someone else in that sombre vehicle, so common to funeral It’s important to processions.

If the approach seems point out that dramatic, it’s important to point out that authorities authorities are are fighting an uphill battle when it comes to ending fighting an distracted driving, as they uphill battle are with impaired driving, decades of powerful when it comes to despite messaging and RIDE camending distracted paigns.

Last year, police observed driving. the phenomenon become even more common than drunk driving. By the end of August last year, there were 38 distracted-driving deaths, compared to 19 impairedrelated fatalities. Overall, 2016 saw 309 traffic fatalities on OPP-patrolled roads, up from 301 the year before, and distracted driving was one of the main causes.

In Ontario, texting, talking into a hand-held mobile device, even eating while driving, can result in a fine between $490 and $1,000, plus the loss of three demerit points. A ticket can also result in a $200 or more uptick on your insurance bill. Distracted driving has been illegal in this province since 2009.

Insurance Bureau of Canada statistics show that a driver is 23 times more likely to be involved in a collision if texting while driving and four times more likely if talking on a cellphone. Eighty per cent of collisions involve some sort of driver inattention.

But drivers continue to do it.

A Canadian Automobile Association survey, conducted late last year, revealed that 33 per cent of Canadians admit to texting at red lights.

If stiffer penalties are what’s required (Transport Minister Marc Garneau is calling for national standards on fines) then they should be implemented. We can’t allow distracted drivers to continue to make our roads more dangerous.

• LETTERS TO THE EDITOR • Reality doesn’t align with opinion on renewables Re: OPINION: Don’t blame renewable energy for Ontario’s electricity costs, March 9.

Keith Brooks, programs director at Environmental Defence, is quoted as saying ".

To keep costs low, we need to see more renewables in Ontario’s future," and, "Wind and solar power costs are plummeting.".

Meanwhile, in the real world things don’t match up with Mr. Brooks’ take on renewables. For every source of solar- or wind-generated electricity that is attached to the grid, there must be a "conventional" generating source (nuclear, hydro, gasfired generators) of equivalent output.

The conventional sources are required to provide the stability of a baseload to the grid and to ensure the grid provides sufficient electricity when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining.

In other words, there first must be enough conventional sources of electricity to meet consumers’ demand. Then, one can add (and this is not cheap to do) intermittent sources of power to the grid.

The Auditor General for Ontario, in at least two reports, has quantified the billions of dollars that this scenario has needlessly cost Ontarians. Similar experiences have occurred around the world.

Australian politicians are in panic mode because the government’s actions to shut down conventional generating sources in fa-

vour of so-called "green" energy) have led to an official forecast that the country will have insufficient electricity in 2018-19. Businesses have shut down, or have reduced staff to cut costs, partly in response to skyrocketing prices for electricity (think, subsidies) and due to power blackouts (see the state of South Australia, particularly).

Germany, a country with one of the most ambitious green targets, is now considering the construction of 12 coal-fired generating plants to replace nuclear plants they are planning to shut and so as to add more reliability to their grid because of the country’s experience with unreliable wind power.

A study of Spain, another country with massive wind power on their grid,

demonstrated that, for every job created by "green" power, two to four jobs were lost.

Mr. Brooks might also like to explain why some other jurisdictions are not enthusiastic about "green" power.

Just one, for instance: there are 1,500 to 2,000 coalfired plants under construction or planned for China, other parts of Asia, and the Middle East for completion between now and 2020. I consider that a major refutation of Mr. Brooks’ statements about the costs of green power.

Speaking as an Ontario ratepayer and taxpayer, we need to vigorously push back against the egregious myths that Mr. Brooks and those of his ilk have been perpetrating on us.

Stouffville Igoma Partnership invites town to August Tanzania trip ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com It’s a chance to learn and help those in need, and it starts here in Stouffville.

The Stouffville Igoma Partnership will head to Igoma, Tanzania in midAugust of this year and it’s hoping to garner support and fellow travellers to the small African village.

The meeting is open to anyone in town who might be interested in travelling with the charity for 12 to 14 days in August.

Mayor Justin Altmann has also expressed interest in joining the trip, SIP says.

During the meeting, SIP chair Justin Kerswill will discuss travel time, accommodations, what to pack, immunizations and the work SIP will conduct

Supplied image

Approximately 600 people – a number of them children – have access to medical care in Igoma because of Stouffville Igoma Partnership’s efforts.

A Christmas fundraiser will be held at the Lion of Stouffville on Dec. 8. while in Igoma.

SIP is also seeking members of the community to fill two vacancies on its board of directors.

Demise of door-to-door campaign a sign of times Whitchurch-Stouffville’s annual door-to-door cancer campaign has been terminated.

Not only here, but across York Region and the Greater Toronto Area.

The Newmarket office has been closed.

It’s depressing. But not unexpected. The handwriting’s been on the wall for several years.

How do I know? Because I and others have served as Cancer Society volunteers for many years and are witness to the fact responses to hand-out requests have become increasingly reticent.

While the cause has undoubtedly been worthwhile, (there’s not a family who hasn’t been touched by this plague) the average householder has definitely become annoyed by so many requests for money, no matter what the benefit.

The same also applies to deliveries of consistent mailings; postal boxes readily jam-packed with appeals.

Not to speak of ceaseless telephone calls, some maybe legitimate, some maybe not.

Enough is enough.

With this cloud hanging over a pending April crusade, cancer campaign organizers found it progressively difficult to obtain route attendants. Regulars no longer needed the aggravation.

"My husband gives at the office," had become a systematic excuse. Meagre collections proved an embarrassment.

Despite reluctance to give and despite assistance from giving, the cancer death toll remains appalling. It would seem, but hopefully untrue, that humanity has reached a point of giving up. And little wonder. Statistics don’t lie.

However, Stouffville’s

JIM THOMAS Roaming Around Liz Lightfoot, a 35-year cancer volunteer, casts a welcomed bright light that helps diminish this shadow of despair.

"The disease recovery rate has increased considerably," she says. "These are stories the media should tell." Liz emphasizes the fact there are more than 200 different types of cancers with specific treatments required for each.

Research, she explains, is ongoing.

On the door-to-door campaign cancellation, Liz says she’s not surprised.

"Over the years it’s been losing steam. It’s extremely difficult to recruit new volunteers."

The face of Stouffville has changed dramatically, she notes, so much so, many residents don’t know their neighbours.

"There’s also a hesitancy to open doors to strangers," she says. "The cancer canvass is no longer a personal thing." The society, she suggests, is attempting to raise funds by other means including a lottery. This decision is borne out through a recently announced Cars and Cash sweepstake with a deadline of April 20.

A personal letter received recently from community campaign manager Patrick McLaughlin reads in part: "With the return of spring, I wanted to reach out and thank all volunteers for their hard work

over the years canvassing for the Canadian Cancer Society. The many successes we have seen are due in large part to you. We appreciate every door on which you have knocked and every dollar you have raised.

"In today’s society, unfortunately, many do not know their neighbours so revenue from the residential canvass has declined.

"With the new economic reality, we’ve had to make tough decisions regarding our community offices. The local headquarters serving Whitchurch-Stouffville has closed.

"These factors have made it difficult to continue the residential canvass campaign.

"For these reasons, it’s been decided to discontinue the residential canvass in your area. We will reach out to our previous donors and thank them for past donations and invite them to continue their support.

"We hope all will resume additional volunteer roles by calling 416-323-7154."

Generations Sing Whitchurch-Stouffville, (Music Town, Ontario), is famous for its remarkable quartets and choirs including: The Men of Note; Bach to Blues; Shout Sisters; Albert St. Four; Parkview Village plus choruses in area churches and schools.

Move over. Another group, intergenerational in scope, is on its way. Entitled Generations Sing, an initial meeting was held March 25 at Stouffville Creek, 40 Freel Lane, with a second planned for April 8 from 2 to 3 p.m.

"Members of every age and all singing levels are invited," explains leader Rosa Alaimo. "Our goal is to bring all generations together in song as well as mutually share a love of music."

’All you Asian drivers just care about your nice little cars, you guys can’t drive,’ the man allegedly said ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com What began as a minor road rage incident on Main Street on Monday, March 27 escalated quickly into racist insults, a Stouffville woman said.

Wynne Chung was stopped on Main Street and Mostar Street. In her account of the incident, a man in a black SUV was ahead of her in the left lane "rolling, not going anywhere."

Chung pulled over to the right lane and passed the driver in the SUV, but soon the driver "cut in front" of her and proceeded to slow down and break.

After honking in frustrating, Chung tried to ignore the issue and pulled into the nearby Shell gas station, where while filling gas in her car noticed she was followed by the same driver.

Chung said she saw the driv-

er and the passenger who she assumed were a couple, both who appeared to her dressed as working professionals, so she decided to ask the driver "what his problem was."

The driver’s response turned the incident from minor road rage into flagrant racism.

"All you Asian drivers," he muttered, according to Chung.

Chung immediately asked him what he meant by his comment.

"All you Asian drivers just care about your nice little cars, you guys can’t drive," he said, allegedly.

Chung responded by asking the man not to stereotype people.

"This is Stouffville, we don’t need these unnecessary and ridiculous actions here," Chung told the man, in an attempt to diffuse the situation.

The man allegedly responded: "Well, I grew up in Stouff-

ville, you guys don’t belong here, you need to go back to where you came from."

Chung, a resident of Stouffville for the last 10 years, said she was "livid" after hearing the comments.

"I asked him where did I

come from?" Chung told the Sun-Tribune while retelling the story.

When she asked, the man responded: "Asia, you need to go back to Asia."

Furious, Chung told the man she had his licence plate num-

ber and photos of the vehicle through her dashcam. According to her, the man responded that he didn’t care if anyone knew about the incident. Shortly after, Chung posted a recap of the incident on the Facebook group "Stouffville Bulletin," a group with almost 2,500 members from the town.

Dozens of members responded to Chung’s post, offering sympathy and support.

"I’m sorry you had to deal with this. Racism will continue to exist for awhile and nothing we say or do will likely change a person but it may just set an example for the next generation.

Be bold and speak out against it," posted Jeffrey Hendrycks.

"Wow, I am sorry that this happened to you," posted Jamie Slade. "Stouffville is a great place to live no matter where you’re from."

But Chung said she has no ill feeling toward Stouffville, a town she proudly calls home.

She filed a complaint with York Regional Police Road Watch.

"I’m still shaking thinking about it now," Chung said.

14 TRANSIT

New GO station extends line to Bloomington and Highway 404 KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com Construction has officially begun on a new GO train station that will extend the Richmond Hill line north to Bloomington Road.

The station, to be located at the southwest corner of Highway 404 and Bloomington, is scheduled to open in 2019.

Transportation Minister Steven Del Duca, Oak Ridges MPP Helena Jaczek, and Newmarket-Aurora MPP Chris Ballard were at the site on Friday morning to make the announcement.

The station - to cost an estimated $82.4 million - is located at a key corner linking the municipalities

of Richmond Hill, Aurora and Stouffville, and brings much-needed expansion of services to commuters in York Region, Jaczek said.

Greg Percy, Metrolinx chief operating officer, promised an "amazing station" that will be a "pride point for the region," with a 765-space parking structure, charging for electric vehicles, heated shelters, a platform snowmelt system, kiss-and-ride area, and a covered bus loop.

It extends the Richmond Hill GO rail line north from the current terminus at Gormley, located at Stouffville Road and Highway 404.

The Gormley station opened in 2016 and is served by five morning and five af-

ternoon GO train trips on weekdays.

The project will make lives easier for York Region residents and will bring more economic investment northward, said Ballard.

The station will include a 12-car side rail platform with a canopy, designated waiting areas and scooter parking. Construction will focus on reducing impact to the surrounding ecosystem with rooftop solar panels and environmentally-responsible building design.

The project will bring 200 jobs to the area, Del Duca said.

"Demands here in York Region are significant," he said. "We are playing that simultaneous game of catch-

All-day, two-way weekend GO train service is coming on the Barrie line Dec. 31. up for the underinvesting that took place prior to 2003 . at the same time working hard to keep up, because we know the demands of population growth."

The station represents

the final stop on the line for Richmond Hill - and while it won’t provide all-day, twoway electrified service "for a considerable time" because the rail is owned and operated by CN, it will still

help get people out of their cars, Richmond Hill Mayor Dave Barrow said.

"Anything that creates more capacity . helps us to grow reasonable, easy, seamless public transit."

ADVERTORIAL

FINALLY - Straight talk About Sciatica Accidents and trauma can also be the culprits.

Pregnancy can cause sciatica. Sciatica can affect anyone - including super-fit celebrities like Tiger Woods, Sylvester Stallone, and British Olympic medallist Ian Wynne.

MYTH: Stop exercising and get several weeks of bed rest to overcome sciatica.

FACT: Staying active can help to relieve sciatic pain and prevent the pain getting worse. Staying inactive in bed could be the worst advice - based on a recent study in the Netherlands.

MYTH: Sciatica requires surgery.

FACT: NO! There’s been a huge breakthrough in the treatment of sciatica and lower back pain. The procedure is called Advanced Bio-Structural Correction Spinal Care Chiropractic. The excellent results from this chiropractic have been published in major medical journals.

MYTH: “There’s nothing anyone can really do. I’m just stuck with this for the rest of my life.”

FACT: With the correct treatment from a healthcare professional who specialises in sciatica, you can find relief from the core cause and the symptoms.

MYTH: Getting Sciatica properly diagnosed is expensive.

FACT: Not true. Zunaid Kagdi DC of Elite Care Chiropractic in Markham is currently offering an initial consultation for Just $27.

Zunaid Kagdi D.C – Sciatica Chiropractor in Markham. Zunaid and his team of fullytrained spinal care staff have helped over 1,000 patients find relief from agonising back pain and sciatica. He uses Advanced Biostructural Chiropractic.

This procedure does not require a hospital stay. The focus is on finding - and correcting the original cause of the back pain and sciatica.

According to Zunaid, “We use a combination of comprehensive diagnostic techniques, for precisely diagnosing the cause of your low back pain and sciatica. This means superior long-term results for most people.”

Almost Immediate Relief From Pain Because the treatment is non-surgical, safe, and easy, most patients report an almost immediately relief from their back pain.

Patient Sean D. from Richmond Hill wrote, “My back pain was unbearable but the worst thing was the searing burning pain I felt in my buttock and leg... my wife insisted I see a Chiropractor. I’m 95% better in just a couple of weeks.”

Call them now and get a full and thorough examination to pinpoint the cause of your problem for just $27. The normal cost of such an exam is $167 so you will save $140!

Call them now at 905-554-8444 and cut out or tear off this valuable article and take it to your appointment. You’ll be on your way to safe, lasting relief!

You can even call on the weekend and leave a message on their answering machine to secure your spot and they promise to return all calls.

During the week staff can be very busy helping patients so if they don’t pick up straight away, do leave a message.

Call 905-554-8444 NOW. If it’s the weekend or they’re away from the phone - the Staff at Elite promise they will get back to you. So call now on 905-554-8444 and quote this special discount code: LOW5443.

Are you suffering from back pain or sciatica?

Then it’s likely your biggest problem is pain.

But there’s another major problem: bad information.

To end sciatica misery you must have the right information. Pay close attention because I’m going to destroy sciatica myths and give you the facts.

MYTH: Sciatica will just “go away” with some rest.

FACT: If you are dealing with back pain, buttock pain or leg pain, then you must seek help from a sciatica specialist immediately. Left untreated, sciatica can lead to permanent nerve damage - and lifelong pain.

MYTH: Pain is the only problem associated with sciatica.

FACT: In severe cases, sciatica can lead to the inability to control your bowels or bladder leading to embarrassing situations.

MYTH: You must take pain medications to deal with sciatica.

FACT: Drugs like muscle relaxants, pain killers, narcotics, antidepressants, and antiseizure medications have serious potential sideeffects and do not cure the root cause of sciatica.

MYTH: “I must have done something wrong to get sciatica.”

FACT: Physical work or simply sitting at a desk for long periods can lead to sciatica.

Take the Next Step - END the Suffering...

Initial Consultation Just $27.

Stouffville on Thursday is teaming up with the spine therapy Chiropractor at Elite Care Chiropractic to help readers find relief from their persistent back and sciatic pain.

The first step is a thorough sciatica examination with a Chiropractor at Elite Care Chiropractic.

Call 905-554-8444 to schedule your appointment. Mention this article (CODE:LOW5443) and Zunaid will happily reduce his usual consultation fee of $167 to just $27!

Region to proclaim Pride Week.

"Richmond Hill is a very, very inclusive community and we did our best to work with [Pride Fest] . We absolutely support Pride," said town spokesperson Meeta Gandhi.

But Gal said local support for the event had declined in recent years and it was time to move on.

Gal said he’d tried to encourage local business involvement, asking them to post a parade flyer in their window, "but I felt like I was annoying them. I only ever saw it in one window - Pharmasave".

The pharmacy, two other businesses and the Falcon and Firkin were their only supporters in the Richmond Hill village, he said.

On the other hand, he said, Newmarket businesses have responded with enthusiasm.

"I don’t want to be tarring everyone with the same brush but there are very different ethnic demographics between the two downtowns.

Before we even started planning the festival in Newmarket we were getting more support there.

The visual atmosphere will be very different, much more rainbows, engagement from businesses."

Glenn Wilson, BIA chairperson and owner of Canada T, welcomes the

event and anticipates a decorated village with rainbow flags in flowerpots.

"After all," he said, "it’s a whole new day and age."

Tom Zielinski, owner of Bike Sports located at the north end of the Main Street parade route, agrees.

When Zielinski left a communist regime to emigrate to Canada, he said he embraced the diversity and freedom here.

"We have to move forward. These millennials, they are smart cookies. We give them so little credit but they have so much common sense. They are walking with the world in their pocket."

Gal said the Newmarket Farmers Market has partnered with the event and there are plans for giveaways, draws, storytelling in the story pod featuring work by LGBT+ authors and performances on the Riverwalk Commons stage.

The artisans festival run by the Lions Club is set for the same weekend at nearby Fairy Lake.

"When you have multiple things to go to, it means you can park your car, take a shuttle with your family for breakfast or food at the Farmers Market, watch the parade then walk the trails at Fairy Lake or check out the jewelry and art and make a whole day out of it."

Stephanie Ramsden, owner of Sweets Instore British import, hopes to hang a rainbow-coloured

"Everyone’s welcome here," she said. "As long as it’s not smutty - and it’s not supposed to be like that then it’s a great thing, bringing everybody together. Newmarket is a really supportive community for everyone."

To distinguish itself from the Toronto Pride parade that has become notorious for its provocative participants, the York Region event does not allow nudity and follows a code of ethics to ensure it is appropriate for families, Gal said.

But some businesses in Richmond Hill weren’t so sure. Mehrdad Sabouhi, BIA chair in Richmond Hill, said local businesses want events in their village but some don’t view the parade as family oriented.

Others disagree with closing Yonge street - and losing business - for several hours.

Michele Brunet, owner of Unwind Yarn House in Newmarket, understands their concern about lost business - she says it’ll hurt her, too, when Main Street is closed - but she believes it is worth it.

"In the long run it benefits me because it lets people know about this area. It brings vibrancy and shows Newmarket is an inclusive community."

How to create the perfect playroom Children are full of surprises. From your heart to your home, they sure do make an impact. If there's room to spare, it's great for kids to have their own space––a place to play, make noise, jump around and unleash their creativity. But how does one create this super room that has to be fun, safe, multifunctional and inspiring? It's more than possible, and it just might save your sanity.

Follow these top tips to create the perfect playroom for your kids.

SOUNDPROOF:

Kids are noisy. You might be thinking there's no way around this one, but soundproofing insulation has you covered. If you don't enjoy the noise of boisterous play permeating to other areas of the house, than this is the perfect solution. Experts often recommend a product called Roxul Safe 'n' Sound, because its high-density composition and non-directional fibre structure do an amazing job of

Dolores Trentadue, CNE & Sonya Torres, ABR

A playroom is the perfect place for kids’ imaginations to run wild. Consider a chalkboard for art, a stage or curtains for a theatre or a tent for a secret reading nook, where kids can pretend to be under the stars.

turning your indoor playground into a quiet zone.

It is also made with natural and recycled materials and is Greenguard certified for indoor air quality.

STORAGE: Whether it's toys, board games, books, tiny collections or craft supplies, it's sometimes surprising how much stuff there is to tuck away. Keep things looking tidy and organized with clever storage pieces. Look for items that pull double duty––great from a design perspective, but with easy-access, pull-out drawers or shelving. Neatly labeled clear plastic containers are also a favourite, as are built-in benches with toss cushions. Be sure to keep plenty of open floor space, because kids love to and need to move.

TrentadueTorresTeam.com | Office: 905.727.1941

SAFETY: It's important to tailor safety measures to your child's age and stage of development. A good rule of thumb is to ensure that all large furnishings are

secured to the wall to prevent toppling. Soft storage drawers or lightweight bins are better than heavy plastic tubs or large toy boxes. Outlet covers can help reduce risk for younger children. Consider green building materials and low VOC paints. Install parental controls on any computers, tablets or electronic devices.

SPECIAL FEATURES: Kids love to unleash their imaginations. If you have the space, consider a small, elevated stage for performances. A painted chalkboard wall is always a hit, along with a designated gallery for their creative masterpieces. A play table is ideal for colouring, painting and crafts, while cushioned benches or bean bag chairs can provide a relaxing place to kick back and read a book. Don't forget bookshelves––active readers have active imaginations, and that's sure to inspire even more amazing ways to play.

More than $50K raised in Stouffville record attempt The concert has so far raised over $50,000 for the several charities it is supporting. It’s more than organizer Kevin Ker expected ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com Stouffville’s Guinness World Record attempt is almost over with just a little over three days left until Epidemic Music Group and the Earl of Whitchurch achieve the record for longest concert by multiple artists.

The concert has so far raised over $50,000 for the several charities it is supporting. It is more than organizer Kevin Ker expected.

"I was just hoping to raise some awareness," he said. "We ended up raising a lot of awareness and a lot of money."

Charities are overjoyed

with the reception they’ve received, Ker said. Some charities are coming back to help the effort.

The record attempt has also led to the Earl being at capacity every evening.

Volunteers from across the community are rushing in to help the effort, with crowd sizes ranging from 35 to 40 people in the early morning to up to 120 in the evenings.

"Every single day there’s been a lineup at peak time," Ker said.

The concert has already broken one record longest live concert streamed over the Internet.

That record was achieved on Saturday,

Kevin Ker, organizer of the The Guinness World Record attempt to hold the longest continuous concert, poses with members of Before the Snare, one of the bands that took part in the campaign, during their performance at the Earl of Whitchurch pub in Stouffville.

March 25 at 8 a.m.

"We had a small celebration and went on with

the effort," Ker said.

Competition has intensified as the Earl is com-

peting with Detroit-based AJ’s Café. The music café started nine days earlier,

so Ker plans to extend Stouffville’s record attempt by a few more days.

"We’re scheduled to go until the end of Tuesday (April 4)," Ker said.

Charities remaining include the Family Navigation Project, the Gord Downie Fund for Brain Cancer Research, Sick Kids Foundation, and Hockey with Heart.

March 31 - when the charity of the day is the Gord Downie Fund - is special for Ker, as it’s the same day as his birthday.

And the day after on Saturday, Ker’s old band Future History - is scheduled to perform at 10 p.m.

"It’ll probably be the busiest night," Ker said.

As for Gord Downie Fund’s day, Ker remains optimistic that it will be a significant day for the record attempt.

"It’s Gord Downie Day," he said. "Who knows who’s gonna show up on Gord Downie Day."

uReport

A group of York Region parents are pushing for a clean sweep of those at the helm of the York Region District School Board.

With the Ministry of Education’s review of the public board’s handling of complaints involving incidents of racism and questionable spending on international travel set to wrap up April 7, the National Council of Canadian Muslims has sent a letter outlining several recommendations it would like considered. The letter was submitted on behalf of parents who currently have human rights complaints lodged against the school board for alleged incidents of racism, and by supporting organizations including the Markham Tamil Community Association, the Mosaic Institute and the Vaughan African Canadian Association.

Charline Grant, a Vaughan parent who was one of the first to file a human rights complaint against the school board, has her fingers crossed for an outcome that will bring change.

"We are hoping that with all of the people and groups involved in the review, that everyone will come up with the best recommendations to give York Region the golden seal," Grant said. "If the same people remain doing the same thing, there won’t be change."

Among the list of changes she and the other organizations would like to see is the appointment of an ombudsperson to ensure accountability. As well, a

cial supervisor by the education minister to ensure the review recommendations are put into action. "(The board) keeps saying it is dedicated to equity and transparency, but that’s not enough," Grant continued. "This board has not proved that it is capable of policing itself."

In an email statement, Parappally stated the

school board "remains committed to providing safe, welcoming and inclusive learning environments for our students and staff members to succeed."

He acknowledged there are areas for improvement

and looks forward to receiving the report and implementing the recommendations he is confident will benefit the organization moving forward.

Through the review, ministry-appointed re-

viewers Patrick Case and Sue Herbert have spoken to parents, community members, students, staff, unions, trustees and more in the course of 75 interviews.

Following the submission of a report penned by the reviewers, Education Minister Mitzie Hunter will review the recommendations and decide how to direct the school board going forward, according to ministry spokesperson Sean Greson.

"We believe swift action is critical to restore public confidence in the York Region District School Board, and to ensure public confidence in the entire education system," he added.

"The next steps will be determined based on the recommendations made in the report."

He confirmed that the report will be made public.

However, due to the "significant implications" of the review, the minister will take the time to review the report based on the concerns raised by local parents and community organizations.

Pape-François to welcome Grade 9s, expanded programs ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com Stouffville’s youngest Catholic school announced it will expand to include grade 9 students in September 2017.

That’s not the only expansion announcement from École catholique Pape-François - which is just two years old. The school also announced that students will have the opportunity to register with three new specialized programs focusing on sports, arts and technology. The school is offering an information session for parents and students in grades 6, 7 and 8 on Thursday, April 6. "École catholique Pape-François quickly carved out a place of choice within the community of Stouffville," said director of education André Blais. Pape-François was ranked first among

Stouffville’s elementary schools by the Fraser Institute. With the expansion, the school aims to maintain that rank.

The three new programs are sports etudes, where students will participate in several sports disciplines while learning technique, nutrition and physical fitness; arts etudes, where students will develop artistic talents and participate in the production of a large-scale show; and tech etudes, where students will learn programming, web design and other software and applications.

The info session will be held at École catholique Pape-François (276 Sunset Blvd.) on Thursday, April 6 from 7 to 8:30 p.m.

To register, contact the school secretariat to register 905-6423440 or by email at lbourbeau@csdccs.edu.on.ca.

CRIME

ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com Police are investigating a break-in and robbery at the Lion of Stouffville pub on the night of Monday.

While the investigation is ongoing and police have not released an image of the suspect, pub owner Doug Crosse described the incident to the SunTribune.

Crosse believes the suspect was intoxicated and perhaps was motivated to "get more booze".

The damage is estimated to be $1,200 to $1,300.

Visitors to the pub today echoed a similar aggravation with what they perceive to be a rise in breakins in town.

"Everyone’s getting a little annoyed," Crosse said. "Stouffville’s losing

"The glass door got kicked in, the file cabinet pushed in," Crosse said.

"He came into the office, stole our cash box."

"He stole a bottle of liquor, Sour Puss," he added. The suspect - who is caught on the Lion’s video surveillance now in the hands of York Regional Police - also stole $115 in coins from the pub’s cash box.

the small town charm.

There are a lot of breakins, and a lot of contributing factors like unemployment or drunkenness."

After having his cellphone swiped off the bar last week, Crosse says he’s frustrated, but "this doesn’t reflect how we feel about Stouffville," he said of him and his wife Maria, both are from Newmarket.

DAVIS, Kathryn Mary Passed away peacefully on March 24, 2017 at Markham Stouffville Hospital in her 94th year. Mary was born in Stouffville, Ontario on April 19, 1923.

Mary was a lifetime employee of Scotia Bank and a long-time volunteer at the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Wellesley Hospital Gift Shop and spent many Christmas Days volunteering at soup kitchens throughout the city. Mary divided her retirement years between her home in Toronto and her at in Ayr, Scotland for many years. She spent 6 months at a time in each location and enjoyed them both well into her 80’s. Mary’s idea of a perfect afternoon was sitting on her balcony, reading the latest Rosamunde Pilcher book and listening to her favourite team, the Toronto Blue Jays, all while drinking a coffee and enjoying her view of Toronto. Mary was the oldest daughter of the late Nellie and Ross (Shine) Davis and is predeceased by her brother Jack (Betty) and her sister Betty (Jim) Miller. Mary leaves behind her nephews Sam (Teresa) Miller and Paul (Dawn) Miller, along with her great-nieces and nephews Courtney, Brandon, Ricky and Monica Miller; and she was a great-great-aunt to Payton Miller and Jake Dewan.
