In an ongoing effort to balance the books, Finance Minister Dwight Duncan unveiled plans yesterday to freeze wages for nearly 500,000 more public service employees in Ontario.
But workers who already agreed to freezes or are fighting against anti-strike legislation say the real issue is about their constitutional right to collectively bargain.
“There was no opportunity to dis-cuss,” Elementary Teachers’ Federa-tion of Ontario York president David Clegg said.
“It’s not a wage freeze, it’s a wage rollback from our perspective. We’ve been picked on and targeted, that’s for sure. So have the doctors.”
About 25,000 doctors are still in talks with the province.
‘We’ve been picked on and targeted, that’s for sure’.

Wednesday’s announcement from the McGuinty Liberals is aimed at hospitals, hydro utilities, universi-ties, colleges and other broader pub-lic sector employees.
However, the recently imposed Bill 115, known as the Putting Stu-dents First Act, is a “scary precedent”, Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation executive officer Scott Marshall said, questioning what big-ger plans the government has.
“We do recognize the environ-ment we are in, but the issue is big-ger than wage freeze,” he said.
While the union proposed a wage freeze and other cost-saving mea-sures, the government turned down its offers, Mr. Marshall said.
This week, high school teachers in York voted 94-per-cent in favour of a strike mandate, adding their support to about 136,000 elemen-tary and secondary school teachers across the province.
York’s elementary teachers vote on a strike mandate Oct. 4.

PRETTY IN PURPLE
The battle over regional council representation isn’t new.
Durham Region has seen politi-cians added and whittled during the years and Peel Region was legislated by the province to increase seats in Mississauga’s favour.
Each process was contentious in its own way.
In York Region, the fight to add five more regional councillors in the 2014 municipal election is about to boil down to representation by population versus representation by workload.
A motion tabled before the sum-mer break and deferred to next month for debate asked the region to request the Minister of Munici-pal Affairs and Housing to enact a regulation that would authorize the change in regional council composi-tion.
Aurora, East Gwillimbury, King, Whitchurch-Stouffville and Vaughan would each gain one new council-lor, if the proposed restructuring gets local, regional and provincial approval.
With the exception of Vaughan, which has its mayor and three region-al councillors, the other municipali-ties being considered are currently represented on regional council by their mayors only.
“Four mayors are on their own and they find it very difficult,” region-al chairperson Bill Fisch said.
Projects in York Region are huge and the commitment of each region-al councillor or mayor is “onerous”, he added.
“It’s not about population,” Mr. Fisch said, calling the motion an unusual request. “It’s about work-load and complexity of the issues.”
However, the changing composi-
Lean, efficient council
should be No. 1 priority

Analysis
All are recovering at home, York associate medical officer of health Dr. Lilian Yuan said.
On the other hand, the number of prob-able human cases have dropped to five from six.
However, a woman, 54, who has been recovering at home in Thornhill for more
than a month, is still awaiting blood test results, Dr. Yuan said.
The number of cases and mosquito pools testing positive for West Nile virus will likely drop as the weather gets colder, she said.
“The weather is in our favour... if we get seasonal weather or frost,” she said. “Mos-quitoes don’t survive in the cold.”
However, patients testing positive for the virus now may have been infected weeks ago, so a decrease in cases likely won’t happen immediately, but perhaps in about a month, Dr. Yuan said.

Transit strike droveresidents to cars
Re: York approves reduced transit fare hike, Sept. 22.
Regional chairperson Bill Fisch assumes people didn’t take advantage of the free transit rides because we are a “car-oriented region”.
I was a transit user until the 97-day strike this winter.
Needing to get places, I and thousands of others were forced to find alternate transporta-tion. Many of us were forced to become “car oriented”.
Most of us will not be stu-pid enough to trust York Region Transit again.
After permitting a transit shutdown of that magnitude, I say people didn’t take advantage of the free transit rides because York Region council, led by Mr. Fisch, is car oriented.
I congratulate him on his upcoming retirement.
I’m sure his public stipend will afford him a luxurious auto-mobile to get around in. I wish him good health, as all us retirees wish for, because it is a real pain riding the bus to the hospital with the reduced schedule.

NIMBY or not, sewage plant not welcome
Re: York Region selects sewage plant site, Sept. 13.
In response to the selection of the sewage treatment plant loca-tion in Queensville, I just have to say, and I will admit that it is NIMBYism, but we don’t want it.
We are thrilled the water being discharged at a rate of 40 millions litres/day is going to be the cleanest of which technology is capable.
We are convinced this will actually improve the quality of the Holland River and Lake Sim-coe.
We will check out the test facility in Mount Albert, but can I just mention, and I don’t know if anyone else noticed, but there is actually no sewage there, so I just don’t think it will compare to what we are getting.
The bottom line, however, is the largest portion of this facil-ity, including multiple 100-foot
angerous. Deliberate. Undermining. Scath-
ing.Those are just a few
choice words hurled at the province this past week after a report found it is blatantly ignoring our rights on important and pos-sibly life-changing environmental decisions being made in our com-munities.
Instead of seeing green on provin-cial eco initiatives — in which, appar-ently, we have little or no say — we should all be seeing red.
“It astounds me to report on the degree of disregard and contempt that is shown to statutory require-ments of the Environmental Bill of Rights,” Environmental Commis-sioner Gord Miller said last week when he released part one of his annual report, aptly entitled Losing Touch.
Not only are the Ontario Liberals flouting our right to know about and comment on green matters, policies and initiatives paid for by the pub-lic purse, they are hiding significant decisions being made, says Mr. Mill-er, Ontario’s independent environ-mental advocate.
As reported by YRMG last week, the worst culprit is the Natural Resources Ministry, which Mr. Miller calls a chronic offender that ignores requirements of the law and devel-ops policies and programs without consulting the public.
“Perhaps it is understandable that the ministries are no longer referred to as the civil service because there is nothing civil about the way citizens are often treated when they exercise their legislated right to file a request for investigation or review,” he said.
For many residents — especially those intrinsically involved in local environmental matters — this report likely comes as no big surprise.
That’s because, along with ignor-ing our input and demands for change, another delinquent, the Environment Ministry, keeps us in the dark.
Look no further than an alumi-num dross smelter on Warden Ave-nue in Georgina, which was certified — but virtually ignored — by the Environment Ministry more than 30 years ago.
York Region politicians have been unsuccessful in getting Premier Dal-ton McGuinty to own up to his prom-ise in 2003 to clean up the Thane smelter site.
“This location is in a league of its own in this region in terms of its envi-ronmental degradation,” Regional Councillor John Taylor has said.
The ministry confirmed yester-day, in fact, it doesn’t have the funds to assist with cleaning up chemicals such as copper, cadmium, zinc and ammonia that continue to move through the ground toward the Maskinonge River and, possibly, Lake Simcoe.
It even goes as far as to deny any commitments the province made in the first place to rehabilitate the site that was under its watch for decades. Appalling, to say the least.
We have simply, as citizens and communities, lost trust and faith in the province’s vow and mandate to protect us.
Opposition parties say hiding information is typical of the Liberals and point to their current fight to get Queen’s Park to discuss recent deci-sions to cancel electrical generating stations in Oakville and Mississauga.
“This government continues to keep Ontarians in the dark on the costs and benefits of legislation, and they don’t want people to know the negative aspects of some of these things,” Progressive Conservative critic Michael Harris said.
Trampling on citizens’ rights and flouting laws that demand we have a say in matters is unacceptable, untrustworthy and contemptible.
Immediate steps must be taken to ensure the public is aware of and understands any and all issues that affect our communities and the Lib-erals have to stop assuming they can run the show behind closed doors and under a veil of secrecy.
Appalling how provinceis ignoring public input
Dave you been following the saga of the National Football League replace-ment officials and their struggles to make the right call in the pres-
sure cooker that is America’s biggest sports stage?
The poor guys in the pinstripes are at the mercy of instant replay as the broadcasters show us the calls that should have been made and shouldn’t have been made — and maybe would have been made cor-rectly by the everyday officials with whom the league can’t seem to reach a deal on a new contract.
Of course, we arm-chair quarter-backs view ourselves as experts on the game, believing we could make those split second calls with our eyes closed and our brains tied behind our backs.
Oddly, instead of us being hum-bled by this spectacle of semi-pro refs struggling to get it right, we seem to be more convinced than ever that we regular guys at home could do better.
Where thousands of us were yell-ing at the TV screen about the blown calls in years past, now there are mil-lions yelling at more blown calls.
Even when these call-up rule enforcers view instant replay in those instances where, mercifully, video review is allowed — you’d think this second chance to see what the rest of the world saw on their TV screens would be all that’s needed — they still can’t seem to get it right.
You’d think they were doing it on purpose — as in, they’d been passed over by the big league and now, when there’s trouble with the “real” refs, the big league comes calling.
Well, we’ll show them. Touchdown Seattle.
It makes me glad we don’t have to deal with this phenomenon in our everyday lives: replacement airline pilots (“Hey, what does this button do?”) replacement brain surgeons (“Oops! I think I dropped some-thing.”), replacement police officers (“Freeze! You’re under arrest for park-ing in...” Boom! “Darn, my gun went off again!”), replacement pharma-cists (“Sore arse and sciatica? Try this, umm, let’s see, arsenic and cyanide! Sounds right, no?”)
I don’t even watch a lot of foot-ball.
But this whole new element of curious rules interpretation, of offi-cials changing the outcome of the game, has added an exciting ran-domness to the games that I intend to enjoy for as long as it lasts.
But while professional football is big business and fans may have a right to be aghast at how shoddy offi-ciating is affecting the credibility of a great game, I must say something I don’t miss now that my own kids are less involved in competitive sports, as seems to happen as kids get older, is the abuse of people who officiate at our children’s sports contests and, in the case of hockey especially, seem to take a type of verbal abuse from the coaches and parents that, if it were me, no amount of compensa-tion could ever make up for.
People walk into a house of wor-ship and are on their best behaviour — peaceful, thoughtful, caring.
Later that afternoon, they walk into a house of hockey worship some-where in the York-Simcoe league and lose their minds — they are scream-ing at the officials in a flurry they wouldn’t unleash on a person who had stolen their life savings or set their house on fire. (As a coach I’ve tried to limit my own comments to “bad call, ref”, not yelled but stated clearly and firmly, when really I should have kept my mouth shut.)
Let’s take this NFL situation as a lesson that officiating at sports events is not as easy as we might think. Screaming at a minor hockey referee, especially a teenage ref, is really not cool.
You wouldn’t scream at the teen-ager serving you at the coffee shop or ringing up your groceries, would you?
You wouldn’t want that caught on video, either, replayed for the nation.
Your children would soon be look-ing for a replacement parent.

ISSUE: Report finds provincial government ignoring our rights
on important decisions.
diameter storage tanks, the open-air aeration tanks and clarifier ponds are part of a conventional sewage treatment plant.
I challenge anyone to suggest they would be thrilled if this facil-ity was coming to their neigh-bourhood.

Volunteers made cancer walk successful
Re: Aurora woman walks for ovarian cancer, Sept. 13.
Thank you for your story on one of our committee members, Jackie Thompson, her survival of ovarian cancer and her involve-ment in the Walk of Hope Auro-ra.
The article raised awareness of this silent and unfamiliar can-cer and promoted our ovarian cancer Walk of Hope.
We are thrilled to say this event was a huge success and wish to thank those who contributed to the success.
We could not have smoothly carried out an event of this mag-nitude without the amazing help of 23 student volunteers. Their polite, obliging, enthusiastic and friendly help stands out so much to us as an integral part of the morning.
A poignant moment came when our amazing singer, Sarah Carmosino, sang Ordinary Miracles after the moment of silence, and came to the words “Sun comes out and shines so brightly”; the sun came out of the clouds at that moment.
Students not only set up and cleaned up after the event, but ran the registration and silent auction tables, gave teal nail pol-ish manicures and greeted and led walkers.
We thank the almost 50 busi-
nesses that donated to help make our event special.
Every item at our silent auc-tion table received bids and we were able to raise about $1,300 through this table alone.
Thank you to our many sup-porters. Through your generous and kind donations, we have raised $13,000 and counting.
The Aurora Walk of Hope has been able to contribute $85,000 to Ovarian Cancer Canada. An early detection screening tool will be discovered and women’s lives will be saved.
Once again, a sincere thank you to everyone involved.

Government’s pipeline decision troubling
I am concerned about the government’s decision regarding Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline.
Enbridge’s record on oil spills is worrisome, amounting to bil-lions of lost barrels.
Perhaps more troubling is the problem of tankers along the British Columbia coastline.
This is one of the most dan-gerous straits in the world, according to the government’s own information.
A spill would destroy the live-lihood of people there.
Supporters say the project would create jobs, but it would be only for three years while the pipeline was being built.
The energy board panel exam-ining the project has not been given the mandate to allow oil tankers along British Columbia’s hazardous coastline. The panel also isn’t looking into the envi-ronmental impact of the Alberta oil sands that provide the oil.
Now, the government has changed the law, so, in the event of a decision of the board against the pipeline, the cabinet can override this, ensuring the proj-ect will be approved.
The democratic way would be to accept the decision of the people in a referendum.
It appears the only way the project won’t be approved is if the government suspects it will cost it the next election.

Elementary school students join protest
Kaitlyn Ferrera-Webster, 12, is one of the organizers of a student protest at Rogers Public School. The students were arguing for extracurricular activities to be reinstated at the school.
STAFF PHOTO/SUSIE KOCKERSCHEIDT
BY TERESA [email protected]
Rogers Public School students jointed the movement to get their extra-curricular activi-ties back.
This morning, a group of grades 6, 7 and 8 students walked out of class to demonstrate with signs and chants just outside the school’s doors in hopes of getting the activities rein-stated at the school.
Kaitlyn and Alyssa Ferrera-Webster, twin 12-year-old sisters who organized the protest, said they want the government to hear what they have to say.
“What the government is doing is unfair to teachers and unfair to us,” Kaitlyn said, hold-ing a sign in front of the school.
When she and her sister found out there would be no volleyball and some clubs would not be offered due to teachers protesting pro-vincial legislation, the duo, with some friends, decided to organize a peaceful walkout to make their voices a little louder.
“We need these teams and clubs because they are fun, teach us to be independent and
Teachers unions argue Bill 115, which impos-es two-year wage freezes and prohibits them from striking, infringes on their right to col-lective bargaining.
PARENTAL SUPPORT
Kaitlyn and Alyssa’s mother, Minerva Fer-rera, was on hand to support her daughters during their protest.
“I couldn’t be more proud,” she said.Despite what people think, the young stu-
dents know what the issues are and find the government’s treatment of teachers unfair.

Ways to lower car insurance rates at any age
Auto insurance is a major expense in a household budget. While it’s mandatory to have insurance, overpaying is not necessary. There are simple ways of getting a more affordable auto insurance rate, regardless of age or driving experience.
NEW DRIVERSUse of a ‘good student discount’ is one way to save on insurance for a young driver. Many insurance companies offer a discount for students who carry a minimum required grade average. Another way to save is by taking a driver education
course from an approved school; to learn the rules of the road. Be sure to inquire about these options, as they may not always be advertised.
DRIVERS OVER 25There may have been some improvement in yearly premiums for drivers with some driving experience. Don’t forget to also ask about further discounts. These may include: installing a security system, driving an eco-friendly car, or installing safety features such as winter tires. If recently married, combine policies with your spouse and take advantage of bulk discounting by having more than one car insured with the company.
EXPERIENCED DRIVERSAn experienced driver with a good driving record may be eligible for better insurance rates; the key is to find the insurance company that will offer the lowest rate.
Shopping around for car insurance is the easiest way to find a better way. Other ways to save include changing your deductible – perhaps carrying a higher deductible; or, combining home and auto insurance policies with the same insurance company.
DRIVERS OVER 55 YEARSMature drivers over 55 years old may qualify for some of the best rates available. Some insurance companies across Canada specialize in getting the best rates for mature drivers. There are also retirement benefits to keep in mind: no commute distance may mean a lower rate. Make sure the insurance company changes the commuting status to pleasure use.
MORE TIPSRemember to review your policy frequently. Tickets come off your driving record in three years from the date that you are convicted and accidents come off
in six years. If a ticket or accident has come off your driving record, check with your insurance company to make sure you’re not still paying for that ticket or accident.
If you drive an older car, you may want to remove the collision coverage if you feel that it’s not worth the extra yearly cost to compensate you for your vehicle value. This will reduce your insurance premium.
Many car insurance companies may actually offer a lower rate to drivers who pay their premium in full on renewal than to those who choose to pay in installments. Monthly payments often come with fees that are charged on each installment. Paying the whole thing up front is a quick and simple way to pay less.
No matter how old you are, it is always a good idea to shop around for a better rate. Quoting sites like ComparaSave.com help drivers find the lowest insurance rate available within their network of over 30 insurance companies.
Drivers should look for more
savings regardless of driver profile.

The Ontario Public Service Employees Union and several other unions plan to rally in Ottawa during the Ontario Liberal annual general meeting Friday.
“We are fighting back against Bill 115. We are hoping it’s going to be recalled,” said Emily Visser, communications officer with OPSEU, which represents about 120,000 employees in the broader public sector.
While she couldn’t say exactly why other unions, including about 45,000 Catholic teachers and 10,000 managers and profes-sional employees, have voluntarily accepted similar deals, including a two-year wage freeze, Ms Visser suggested they were forced to do so.
The smaller unions may be more vulner-able, she said, whereas the unions still fight-ing back are larger.
The wage freeze isn’t the issue, Ms Visser agreed.
“It’s our collective bargaining right that is the much bigger issue here,” she said.
Ontario English Catholic Teachers Associ-ation president Kevin O’Dwyer took offence to suggestions his group settled to ensure funding to the schools wasn’t cut.
“I’ve heard that before... and it’s false,” he said, adding there was no conversation about funding during the union’s six months of negotiation with the province.
Instead, the union recognized the prov-ince is going through a challenging economic time and decided on the wage freeze before the government set out the parameters, Mr. O’Dwyer said.
He called the deal fair and reasonable, “given the economic situation and given the government was prepared to use legisla-tion”.
For the Association of Management, Administrative and Professional Crown Employees of Ontario, the latest group to
reach a tentative two-year wage-freeze agreement, the 80 days of bargaining were about being cognizant of the political and economic environment and the govern-ment’s fiscal challenges, president Gary Gannage said.
“Our employer is the government. They have a certain power that no other employ-ers have and that is to pass legislation,” he said.
Feelings of resentment and poor morale are bad for any workplace and weaken the relationship between employees and employers, Mr. Gannage said.
That being said, every bargaining group is unique, he added.
The biggest concern for him is a tendency toward “global attacks” on collective bargain-ing rights.
“It’s the fundamental democratic prin-ciple,” he said.
Asked what he thought of the $418,000 pay cap proposed for executives in govern-ment agencies, hospitals, colleges, universi-ties and other organizations, Mr. Gannage let out a sigh.
“No one makes $418,000 in our group,” he said, chuckling.
Thornhill Progressive Conservative MPP Peter Shurman, the critic for finance, was unavailable to comment, but Lambton-Kent-Middlesex Progressive Conservative MPP Monte McNaughton, the official oppo-sition critic for economic development and innovation, said he’s not surprised differ-ent unions are responding differently to the wage freeze.
“Dalton McGuinty’s approach is weak and needs to have a backbone,” he said. “He is targeting teachers and with a divisive approach.”
Mr. McNaughton said the fairest approach is to freeze all public sector salaries across the board, something he said his party proposed and was defeated in the spring.
OPSEU fighting back against Bill 115: officerA Finance Ministry representative declined
to comment, but provided a statement say-ing the government is taking strong action to eliminate the deficit and help protect public services and jobs.
“Our government respects the hard work and dedication of public sector employees,” the statement said.

Jeremy Roy helps put the spooky into Aurora’s annual haunted forest.
The Grade 12 École secondaire catholique Renaissance student has carved pumpkins, created graveyard scenes and dressed up to scare attendees at the annual Halloween event for the past four years.
What began as an idea to get some of the volunteer hours he requires to graduate high school evolved into volunteering becoming part of his lifestyle.

You can step back in time to ensure the future of a national treasure at the Hillary House Ball Oct. 19.
You’re invited to get in your Victorian era finery and celebrate the 150th anniversary of the historic house when the Aurora Histori-cal Society transforms DiNardo’s The Man-sion into a mid-1800s gala ball, complete with seasonally inspired cuisine, entertain-ment, dancing and a silent auction.
The event will raise money for restora-tion and ongoing operations of Aurora’s heritage gem, society vice-president and
Go Victorian at Hillary House Ball
gala ball chairperson Patricia Wallace said.Accompanied by society members
resplendent in elegant ensembles similar to those worn when the iconic residence on Yonge Street was constructed in 1862, Ms Wallace greeted surprised GO Transit riders Friday to promote the fundraiser.
The ball culminates a year of special events, including a spring 150th anniversary launch, summer fashion show, strawberry tea and children’s day camps.
Earlier this month, Hillary House was showcased at Theatre Aurora during a screening of Moon Point, with cast and crew, who filmed at the historic site.
The gala ball, with room for 300 guests, will top off a three-year, $750,000 fundrais-ing drive in support of the property, desig-nated a national historic site in 1973.
Tickets are selling well and won’t last long, Ms Wallace said.
The ball will feature former Aurora mayor Tim Jones as master of ceremonies.

AURORATWEETSUse Twitter to send comments on anything
related to Aurora, be it a council decision or great customer service at a local
business, to @auroraeditor using the hashtag #AuroraTweets. We’ll run some of thecomments in The Banner each week.
Aurora council postponed discussing rules on how money from the sale of Aurora Hydro can be spent until the next council meeting.
Previously, council was presented with minor changes to the rules that govern the spending of more than $30 million in unused funds resulting from the sale.
At last week’s general committee meeting, the recommended changes were accepted, but due to a request from Councillor Wendy Gaertner, who was absent from the meeting to honour a religious holiday, the decision was pushed to the next council meeting.
Mayor Geoff Dawe pointed out it was only technical amendments to the rules, the information was provided to council in July and he didn’t see the need to defer the deci-sion any further, especially when it isn’t a decision about actually spending the funds.
Four of the seven council members pres-ent disagreed and the issue will come for-ward at the next council meeting.
No addition to cenotaph
Aurora won’t add a name to its cenotaph.Following a previous request from council
to determine if Lance Cpl. Erle Cosford Gar-butt’s name appears on another cenotaph in Canada, staff discovered it appeared on the war memorial in Warkworth.
The family name in question also turns up in Hastings County in the 1901 census and in Madoc in the 1911 census and Mr. Garbutt enlisted in Belleville, giving the next of kin address as Warkworth. Mr. Garbutt was born in Aurora and when he died in 1917, the noti-fication was sent to his father in Aurora.
Council decided not to add the name to the local memorial.
Special budget meetings
Aurora council has scheduled two special meetings for Monday.
There will be an audit committee meeting at 6 p.m., followed by a special general com-mittee budget meeting, as recommended by town staff.
The audit meeting will include the pre-sentation of the 2011 audited financial state-ments, audit results and a closed session to discuss an internal control letter.
The special budget meeting will focus on the current 10-year capital investment plan, report on reserves, 2013 budget fore-cast, budget approach and committee review schedule.
Town seeks university
Aurora has thrown its name in the hat to be the home of a new university.
With the provincial government indicat-ing it plans to add three post-secondary insti-tutions, Aurora council decided it would like to be in the running before more site selec-tion criteria becomes available in the fall.
Other communities expressing interest include East Gwillimbury, Newmarket, Barrie and Milton.
Chief administrative officer Neil Garbe suggested creating a working group tasked with formulating a plan for an expression of interest to attract the school to Aurora.
Council agreed to the recommendation.— Teresa Latchford

Aurora council wants to keep the town intact within one federal electoral district.
The Federal Electoral Boundaries Com-mission for Ontario has proposed boundary changes that would split Aurora between two ridings, with Wellington Street as the divider.
Residents living north of Wellington would continue to vote in a new version of Newmar-ket-Aurora, while those to the south would vote in the proposed Aurora-Richmond Hill riding.
Mayor Geoff Dawe asked for councillors’
input on what stance the town should take Tuesday night.
It became clear the preference is the town remains in one riding.
“The split shouldn’t take place in Aurora,” Councillor Paul Pirri said. “Eagle Street (in Newmarket) would create an Aurora-Newmar-ket riding.”
Splitting the riding is necessary to ensure more federal representation due to a growing population, he said, adding he would prefer to keep Aurora intact.
Many of his colleagues liked the ring of an
Aurora-Newmarket riding, but they cautioned against directing the split to neighbouring communities that would also probably prefer to keep their towns intact.
“It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek to say where we think it should split,” Mr. Dawe said.
Mr. Pirri argued it is useless to make a state-ment without suggesting alternatives.
Council supported the position of keeping Aurora intact and asked staff to devise three alternative electoral boundary options before the public input sessions on the changes begin in October.

After travelling 7,332 kilometres over parts of last three years, Aurora resident Armin Kluge has completed his goal of biking across Canada.
“I’m 72 years young,” he said. “It felt really good to finish, let me tell you.”
Setting out from his home at 17 Tilston Grove Aug. 16, Mr. Kluge pounded the ped-als for about 100 km a day until his arrival in Halifax Sept. 14th. It was the third leg of his three-part tour.
Last year, he cycled from Vancouver to Kenora and the year before, from Kenora to Aurora.
Along the way, he raised money for a school in Cambodia that his friend built. Mr. Kluge has raised more than $25,000 for the cause.
“I wanted to set an example for family and friends. If you set yourself a goal, you can do great things,” he said.
Mr. Kluge has travelled to the school every year since 2010 and has seen the impact his fundraising has made.
Children who would not otherwise receive an education can now attend school and the difference can be seen in something as simple as how many students now speak English.
“I was successful doing this mission and raising funds for children of the village,” he said.
Magna made a significant donation to his ride each year, he noted.
Friends and family celebrated his return last Thursday with party at his house.
A banner across his two-car garage read “Welcome home Armin”.
The house was infused with the smells of breads, cilantro and chili and hearty sounds of laughter and fellowship.
“It’s nice have him back again,” his son,

Arne, said. “I thought it was a great idea, per-fect for him.”
Armin is already hounding him to go on a canoe trip, Arne said.
While everyone else was dressed in nor-mal attire, Armin was wearing his cycling gear and devouring his wife Inge’s chili.
He missed his wife very much, but they were able to talk on the phone every night during his journey, he said.
The seed for Mr. Kluge biking across Can-ada was planted in 1997 on remote Ellesmere Island in Canada’s north, when he met a 74-year-old who told him a story about bik-ing from Vancouver to Halifax at age 70.
Armin had a desire to do something meaningful.
The best part of the trip was all the friend-ships he made across the country, he said.
“The people I met along the way were amazing,” he said. “I noticed how much I learned about myself.”
Mr. Kluge is particularly proud he only paid $25 for accommodation during the entire trip.
He spent most nights at houses he found from online travelling communities.
What’s next for Armin is anyone’s guess.He started talking about another trip dur-
ing the party, drawing some loud protests from Mrs. Kluge.
“I’m going to call the divorce lawyer,” she joked.
“I can’t afford that,” he replied. For now, he is contemplating writing a
book about his journey and the people he met along the way.
“What a great experience,” he said. “Thanks to everyone who has helped me.”

Victor Rosario smacked a two-out, two-run double in the bottom of the seventh inning to lift the New York Police Department Finest to a 4-3 victory over the Newmarket Hawks in the final of the Garrett Styles Memorial Baseball’s Angel baseball tournament Sunday after-noon at McKnight Field.
The victory capped a string of five consecutive wins for the NYPD side that had earlier defeated the Hawks 6-1 in round-robin play dur-ing the eight-team tournament.
The Hawks took a 3-2 lead in the top of the seventh as Mark West doubled and scored on a base hit to break a 2-2 tie.
Huskies Freemantle earns youth athletics award
Newmarket Huskies’ Alex Free-mantle has been named Athletic Ontario’s 2012 youth division dis-tance runner of the year.
The Newmarket resident was honoured at the organization’s awards banquet Saturday night in Toronto.
Freemantle highlighted his year with a victory in the boys 1,500 metres at the Canadian nations championships in Charlottetown, P.E.I. He also recorded the fastest times for youth boys in the 800 and 1,500 metres. He also won the OFSAA Central Region high school title for the senior boys 1,500 metres before finishing sixth in the provincial high school final.
Freemantle is the third mem-ber of the Huskies to win Athletics Ontario honours in two years, fol-lowing in the footsteps of distance runners Rita Quibell and Sheila Reid.

Newmarket Sports Hall of Fame should exercise its options
Three newcomers will be enshrined into the New-market Sports Hall of Fame when the Class of
2012 ceremonies are held Nov. 18 at the Magna Centre.
Notably, and surprisingly, none of those inductees are in the ath-letes category.
Baseball’s Don McKnight and tennis legend Keith Davis played their sports, of course, but that’s not the basis of their inclusion.
They are in as builders of their sports.
The 1950s intermediate wom-en’s softball team that won three provincial championships in four seasons is clearly in the team cat-egory.
Make no mistake, all three are worthy inductees.
However, it seems nearly impossible that, with decades of athletic achievements to choose from, there isn’t one single, solitary induction from the athlete field included in this third class.
That is a flaw of a system in which nominations come from the general public.
As it happens, there is leeway for appointed nominees. It ought to be exercised.
The sports gods know there are plenty of individuals worthy of being inducted.
Trouble is, those past stars may not receive their due unless some-one steps forward to put forth their names.
In many cases, families — if descendants are even living locally — are reluctant to do so, perhaps through humility or not being aware of the proper guide-lines.
Builders and teams certainly have their place, although the field for both is nowhere near as deep as for athletes.
The selection committee has the means to be proactive and ensure the inclusion of worthy candidates. Please, do so.
Wildcats drop senior ball
Sacking senior football at Dr. G.W. Williams Secondary School has been some time coming.
The demise of the Aurora high school’s team has been a source of speculation since the end of last season, but when the Wildcats pro-gram was not represented at the pre-season declaration meeting, it became official.
“It was multiple things,” Wild-cats head coach Kent Bulmer said. “We ended the (2011) season with 20 players, and 14 of those were graduating.
“There was very little potential for a team based on those numbers staying and moving up from junior. There just is not a huge excitement and it is unsafe with those num-bers. ”
Bulmer also pointed out inju-ries and a shallow roster forced his team to forfeit a game last season for the first time.
The Wildcats won the senior Tier 2 title last season.
“We played one game last sea-son with 16 kids,“ Bulmer said. “It was crazy. I don’t know what it means for the future.”
The veteran coach said it is frustrating because proven players opted to not play football.
“We had a half dozen quality kids walking around the school last year not playing,” he said. “That was tough for me to see knowing that they had played the previous year.”
Richmond Hill Raiders will not field teams at either the junior or senior levels and Woodbridge dropped all sports programs this year. Community club numbers are down.
Baseball down in count
As so-called elite baseball pro-grams plunge deeper into Baseball Ontario programs to recruit play-ers, community programs must be concerned with their future role.
For-profit organizations are crawling over themselves to snap up the so-called elite players with little, if any, resistance from the provincial governing body. The horse long ago left the barn.
There are, of course, count-less alternate programs available to folks willing to pay hefty sums. Some can boast of putting a kid into some obscure junior college in southeastern Wyoming where he might receive a few books and bucks, although nothing compa-rable to the money his folks spent over the previous few years on alternate programs.
The scariest part is it is no longer the teenage categories under attack by the alternate programs. Players as young as 10 are being snapped up by some organizations. As a par-ent, should you not ask yourself — if they see the potential in little Mickey’s changeup or home run trot at that age, shouldn’t I be wary? Yeah, probably.
The member associations of Baseball Ontario can’t even agree to something as simple as the 400 Series, an attempt to bring together top teams for head-to-head com-petition.
Community rep baseball is under siege. Under current condi-tions, there will one day be no play-ers left to recruit, as rep programs are decimated.
Baseball Ontario has been able to provide little resistance over the years and will ultimately pay the price for its error.

LIONS MAUL COLTS
Tigers look for traction to get rollingLast Week — Sunday - Won 4-2 at Wellington Dukes ... Saturday - Lost 4-3 vs. Whitby Fury ... Thursday - Lost 2 (SO) at Kingston Voyageurs.Coming Up — Friday at Trenton Golden Hawks ... Sat-urday vs. Wellington Dukes, Aurora Community Centre, 7:30 p.m.Game Notes — Mike Sones and Dylan Sikura scored goals three minutes apart in the final five minutes as the Tigers erupted for three third-period goals to defeat the Dukes in Wellington. Daniel Clairmont and Dylan Wallace also scored for the Tigers, who rode a 33-save effort from netminder Brett Sinclair to their first road win of the season ... Against Whitby, the Fury scored three straight power-play goals to break a 1-1 tie in the second period. Chris Ruguseo’s tally early in the third period built a 4-1 lead to withstand Tiger power-play goals by Mihkel Poldma and Taylor McCloy in the third period. Kevin Shier had the other Aurora goal ... At Kingston, defenceman Nick Izgerean staked Aurora to a 1-0 lead after two periods but Vees’ Brett Du Puy sent the game to overtime with a goal six minutes into the third period. The Skinny — Dylan Wallace and Kory Kennedy share the team lead in scoring with four points each. Wallace
is one of several players with two goals, while Ken-nedy has four assists ... Izgerean is expected to miss a couple of weeks after suffering a shoulder injury in the Wellington game. ... Forward Robert Angiolella (thumb) is questionable for the weekend games ... Daniel Lisi returned to the lineup in Kingston after missing the first two games of the season as a precautionary measure ... The Tigers will be seeking to avenge an opening-night loss to the Golden Hawks and former Aurora head coach Jerome Dupont. It is Aurora’s second visit to Tren-ton already this season.
Speak Up — “We need a breakout night,” coach James Richmond said.
“We seem to go out and have 20 or 40 minutes where we look really good. Then we’ll have 20 or so not-so-good minutes. In the North-East if you don’t play 60 minutes, you’ll be in trouble no matter who you are.”
“We’ve seen them both and know we can play with and beat them both,” Richmond said, looking ahead to games against Trenton and Wellington. “So we’ll see if we can do it.”
Record —2-2-0-1, 3rd in North Division.

It’s a 5,000-pound, gas-guzzling torque monster, about as popular with green motorists as a Class A motorhome.
Sure, its siblings are powered by a reasonably fuel-efficient Pentastar V6, but not this bad boy. Under the hood you’ll find the legendary Hemi V8 engine – in its thirstiest form.
Indeed the SRT8, which starts at $55,395, may be a pricey, impractical and perhaps irresponsible take on Jeep’s popular Grand Cherokee SUV, but despite these negatives, and the pain I felt at the gas pump, it was hard giving back the keys after a week of testing.
It can be fun embracing the dark side.
Star Wars analogies aside, even the look of the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is borderline sinister. The styling isn’t radically different from less potent models, but certain cues suggest it’s not your typical fam-ily hauler.
The SRT8 starts with a more mus-
cular, planted look, having been low-ered an inch and adorned with SRT-exclusive body-coloured wheel flares and side sills.
The monochromatic exterior con-tinues with a one-piece fascia with new LED daytime running lamps and the body-coloured grille with black mesh accented by chrome bezel inserts. The lower grille is also painted gloss black.
The sculpted hood gets a couple of functional black heat extractors, and in rear there’s a one-piece black fascia with separate air diffuser.
Big, four-inch exhaust tips flank the diffuser, rather than being centre-mounted as before.
As my tester was also dipped in black, the only flourishes of colour were the taillights and the red-painted Brem-bo brake calli-pers (six piston in front, four-pis-ton in rear) peeking out from within the split five-spoke, 20-inch forged aluminum wheels, shod with big rubber.
Indeed, the Grand Cherokee SRT8 looks menacing, but not over the top. Which is a good thing, as you wouldn’t want to draw too much attention to its all-new 6.4-litre Hemi V8 that pumps out a whopping 470 hp and 465 lb/ft of torque. That’s
an improvement of 50 horses and 45 lb/ft over the 6.1-litre engine it replaces.
Avoiding the minutiae on intake and camshaft, I’ll just note this new engine pulls across a wider RPM band than before. Ninety per cent of peak torque is now available between 2,800 and 6,000 rpm.
Sure, it has variable cylinder man-agement (VCM), which during light cruising can shut down four cylin-ders, and a new active valve exhaust system that can improve highway fuel economy by 13 per cent. But I’ll
bet it doesn’t get much use.Fuel saver technology is nice, but in this vehicle,
it’s a bit like ordering a diet coke to wash
down your triple bacon cheese-burger.
H e l p i n g route all that power to the pavement is a new SRT-
tuned, adaptive damping suspen-
sion managed by the new Selec-Track
4x4 system. This works with a load of
tech that includes stability control, adaptive damping, transmission mapping, transfer case torque pro-portioning, electronic limited slip differential, throttle control and cyl-inder de-activation to automatically tune the driving dynamics.
A five-position dial allows driv-
ers to choose the appropriate set-ting, with Auto, which provides the smoothest, most compliant ride (thanks to the adaptive suspension), probably the best choice for daily driving.
Auto even upshifts automatically with the paddles and autostick, so if you want more control, choose the Sport or Track settings. In manual mode, neither of these will upshift until you do, gear changes are delayed and noticeably quicker.
Sport also tightens the suspen-sion for more body control, and Track takes that a step further, dis-abling traction control and locking down body motion for even better handling. Like Sport, this setting provides a rear bias in the 4x4 sys-tem, with torque split 35/65 between front and rear.
Tow mode reduces pitch and bounce for safer hauling, and modi-fies the shift schedule for less “busy-ness” in the transmission. And Snow mode provides gentler starts, as it begins in second gear, with the system programmed for reduced wheelspin.
Unlike the six-speed 5.7-litre Cherokee, the SRT8’s transmission gets one less cog. But no matter, with all that 6.4-litre Hemi torque, you’ll not miss it.
Step on the throttle and the big P295/45ZR20 Pirelli Scorpion Verde all-season run-flat tires really dig in for a launch that’s on par with many performance cars. There’s no hesita-

evil twin I thumbed the starter and
waited as my wife Mary settled in behind me.
A last check of the mirrors, a twist of the throttle, and we squirt-ed out of the driveway, motoring away with that classic scooter drone. And, for just a second, I felt like Larry Crowne.
Granted, you’d have to squint pretty hard to mistake the two of us for Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts.
And you’d have to be even more nearsighted to confuse this very modern scooter with the 80s-era Riva that Hanks rode in the movie.
Sure, they’re both Yamaha branded, but they are 30 years and a world apart in style, performance and technology.
The TMAX fits into the maxi-scooter class and its half-litre engine performance, feral face and sporty lines were designed to blur the differences between scooters and motorcycles.
The TMAX takes its styling cues directly from Yamaha’s sport bike lineup and even shares some bits and pieces from their parts bins. It’s always been a highway-capable performer that will match many motorcycles with initial off-the-line acceleration.
Bike-like components include a lightweight aluminum frame, large 43 mm forks, an adjustable wind-screen, biggish 15-inch wheels and R6-inspired brakes.
For 2012, the new third genera-tion TMAX gets a major makeover. Engine cylinders have been bored out an additional 2 mm, bumping displacement up by 30cc to 530cc. As a result, power is up by 3 hp to 46 hp, and torque increases by 10 percent to a 39 lb/ft peak at a lower 5250 rpm. A larger 34 mm Mikuni throttle body (up from 31 mm), a new airbox, and redesigned radia-
Taking scooters to the max with Yamaha TMAX
The black exterior of this 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, with its one-piece
fascia, body-coloured grille with black mesh, and gloss black lower grill makes
a sinister first impression. Beneath its sculpted hood with black heat extractors,
lurks a 6.4-litre Hemi V8 that delivers 470 hp and 465 lb/ft of torque.

The weather was looking bleak Saturday morning, but mother nature came through for the Highway 11 Cruisers Car Club who held their season fi nale show & shine for SickKids Hospital.
The event attracted more than 800 vehicles, which included trucks, motorcycles, classics, modern muscle, military ve-hicles, tuners, Junior Dragsters, Transformer cars (Bumble-bee and Barricade), Kitt (Knight Rider) and the General Lee) to wow the crowds and support the fundraiser. Also included were numerous vendors, a DJ and live entertainment.
More than 20 plaques were awarded for various categories, and there were numerous door prizes and raffl es. Overall, it was a successful day with over $1,000 raised.
The Cruisers would like to thank the volunteers who for their hard work, and for helping the day run smoothly.
Classic rides for SickKids
Brian Ahearn stands proudly in front of his 2005 Chrysler 300 in full display. Ahearn, who’s owned the vehicle since 2004, has since participated in many car shows, both in Canada and the United States to showcase his unique vehicle.
This vintage bike was one of the many unique offerings at the Highway 11 Cruisers Car Show held on Sept. 22. Older models drew quite a crowd and their owners were more than happy to share their history.

(17860 Yonge Street, Newmarket. North of Davis Drive in front of Home Depot),
and will continue to run Tuesday nights from 6 p.m. to dusk until October 9th.
This 1931 Ford, owned by John and Mary Louise Bull was one of several antiques that drew considerable attention. With a uniquely designed interior and personal touches on the body, there was defi nitely no other like it .

For 58 of its 60 years, the legendary Chev-rolet V8 engine has powered the Chevrolet Corvette.
Technological advancements have increased output threefold – from 195 hp in 1955 to 638 hp today – as well as reliability, refinement and efficiency.
However, the fundamental architecture of the Chevrolet “Small Block” remains the same today as it was in 1955: a 90-degree V8, with overhead valves actuated by pushrods, and a 4.4-inch on-centre bore spacing.
Despite a sporty appearance, the early Cor-vettes’ performance didn’t match their good
looks. The car launched in 1953 with the “Blue Flame” inline six-cylinder engine and a two-speed automatic transmission – not exactly the stuff on which to build a sports car legend.
That changed in 1955, when the new small-block V8 engine became available and was ordered by 99 per cent of Corvette buyers.
Not only did the new and significantly more powerful engine breathe new life into the Cor-vette’s driving experience, it could be linked to a three-speed manual transmission that gave the driver an even greater connection to the car.
The result made the Corvette a proper sports car, and enthusiasts responded. Sales nearly doubled from 1954 and by the end of
the decade, they nearly tripled.Immediately after the V8 was introduced,
the small-block began a steady march upward in displacement, power and technological advancement.
The Corvette’s first 4.3-litre (265 cu in) small-block engine in 1955 produced up to 195 hp with an optional four-barrel carbure-tor. Today, the LS9 6.2-litre (376 cu in) super-charged small-block in the Corvette ZR1 is rated at 638 hp (476 kW), delivering about 230 per cent more power than the original small-block engine from only 42 per cent greater displacement.
Today’s small-block is also remarkably fuel efficient. For example, the 430 hp LS3 version
of the Gen-IV small-block helps the 2013 Cor-vette accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in about four seconds, run the quarter-mile in just over 12 seconds and achieve a top speed of 190 mph – all while achieving highway fuel consumption rating of 7.7L/100km.
That fuel efficiency compares favorably to vehicles more commonly associated with daycare drop-off than road-course lap times.
Indeed, the Corvette’s highway fuel con-sumption rating is lower than the 2012 Hyun-dai Equus (8.6L/100km), 2013 Volvo XC90 AWD (8. L/100km), Subaru Legacy with the 3.6L flat-6 (8.2L/100km) – and it matches the Toyota Venza with the 3.5-litre V6 (7.7 L/100km).

Santa Fe more efficient, more refined for 2013
Neil Moore
York Region Media GroupWheelstalk.com
Numerous incremental changes throughout the exterior make the all-new Hyundai Santa Fe Sport look significantly more upscale. There are
two sizes for 2013: the five-passenger Sport (as shown) and the long-wheel base, seven-passenger model to be
released in the first quarter of 2013.
It’s no secret that Hyundai has been riding high the past few years, with August mark-ing 44 consecutive months of year-over-year sales gains.
Such success is reflected in a 3.4 per cent market share increase since 2008, putting the Korean manufacturer in number five spot, behind Toyota.
Hyundai didn’t get there on price alone, although after putting clunkers like the Pony and Stellar behind them, they were still rec-ognized for a lineup that was largely ‘cheap and cheerful.’
But that was then and this is now, and after winning Canadian and North American Car of the Year (COTY) in 2009 with the luxury Genesis Sedan, and more recently scooping three 2012 Canadian COTY category wins for the Accent, Veloster and Elantra, the com-pany has surged up the pecking order.
And so has the Santa Fe within its segment, as the all-new 2013 model has improved in nearly every way.
It also now comes in two body styles. The five-passenger ‘Sport’ is on sale now with FWD or AWD, and is available with two engines: a 2.4-litre four cylinder with gasoline direct injection (GDI), and a 2.0-litre turbo-charged four, also with GDI.
All Sport models get a six-speed automat-ic with Shiftronic manual shift. The seven-passenger, long-wheelbase version is simply named the Santa Fe, and will replace the Veracruz sometime during in early 2013.
More upscale exteriorLast week, our group of journalists had an
opportunity to drive the Sport, and I’ll admit that although having seen the photos, I didn’t expect something quite so refined.
This starts with the exterior. At first it doesn’t seem a huge leap from the outgoing model, but incremental changes in the grille, headlights, taillights, roofline, belt line, char-acter lines and other areas combine for an effect that is significantly more upscale.
Like the Tucson, it employs Hyundai’s ‘Fluidic Sculpture’ styling, but in a way that appears more purposeful.
Along the sides are character lines that pierce each door handle, along with sculpt-ing that provides dimension and depth. This seamlessly flows into the protruding wheel arches, which house standard-equipped 17-inch Euroflange alloy wheels.
The bold front end with hexagonal front grille is flanked by modern swept-back pro-jector headlamps and black-accented fog lamps. The two-tone lower fascia projects a rugged, SUV appearance.
For 2013, the Santa Fe is longer and lower, and has more interior space – besting pretty much all the competition except for the Toyota RAV4.
Along with an increase in capacity is a cut in weight. This new model is 120 kg lighter than the 2012 (and 16 per cent stiffer), much of this due to a greater use of high-tensile steel from Hyundai’s own steel plant.
A more rigid body, better aerodynamics, improvements in damping and bushings, a dou-ble-layered windshield, and more insulation in the dash and floor, add up to a cabin that’s sur-prisingly hushed. Nearly what you’d expect from Infiniti or Lexus.
I’m not saying fit and finish are quite at that level, but the lighting, instruments, controls and seating wouldn’t look out of place in a more expen-sive vehicle.
The boomer buyers that Hyundai is target-ing want more than utility, and the company has responded with a pile of premium features for those wanting to upfit their Santa Fe: dual zone climate control, heated rear seats, ventilated front seats, rear door sunshades, heated steering wheel, rear park assist, rear camera, push button start, navigation, panoramic sunroof and 19-inch alloy wheels.
Of course, these are higher trim options, but even the base, at $26,499, offers a healthy list of standard amenities.
The Santa Fe 2.4-litre FWD includes air condi-tioning, heated front seats, power windows with driver’s auto up/down and pinch protection, tilt/telescopic steering with audio and cruise controls,
power lumbar support, Bluetooth and six-speaker AM/FM/XM/CD/MP3 audio system with iPod/USB/aux inputs.
Also standard are second-row 40/20/40 split fold reclineable seats that drop to double the 1,002-litre rear cargo hold to 2,025 litres. And there’s ample under-floor storage.
This entry model also gets a rear spoiler, roof-rack side rails and the previously mentioned 17-inch alloys.
Next in line, with the 2.4-litre engine, is the Pre-mium FWD ($28,299), followed by Premium AWD ($30,299) and Luxury AWD ($33,899).
Turbocharged 4 cylinder The base turbo model comes in Premium
trim, which will set you back $30,499 for FWD or $32,499 for AWD. However Hyundai expects the SE AWD, to be their overall volume seller, which at $35,299 includes pretty much everything but navi-gation, power passenger seat and upgraded audio system. If you want these, opt for the Limited AWD at $38,499.
Indeed, there’s a hefty premium for going with the turbo ($2,200) and AWD ($2,000), but Hyundai expects roughly two-thirds of their sales to be turbocharged models, and more than 70 per cent to be AWD.
The turbo may be top dog, but the 2.4-litre is no wimp, producing 190 hp and 181 lb/ft of torque – 15 hp and 12 lb/ft more than the 2.4-litre engine it replaces. And with 12 percent better fuel economy.
Acceleration is smooth, and the engine doesn’t
drone noticeably, but there isn’t much kick when you plant the pedal. Which is to be expected, as the Santa Fe still tips the scales at 1,569 kg (FWD) and 1,640 kg (AWD).
The 2.0T, on the other hand is considerably more robust.
Replacing last year’s V6, it gives up a few horses (four percent), but delivers eight percent more torque and the same percentage in added fuel economy.
Numbers are 264 hp and 269 lb/ft, with torque coming in at a low 1,750 rpm. As a result, it’s sig-nificantly quicker off the line than the 2.4-litre, and far better at highway passing.
With the MacPherson strut/multilink front/rear suspension setup, ride is smooth, and as you’d expect in a tall vehicle, there’s a bit of lean in hard cornering.
Steering, however, is taut and precise. Mind you, I had the Santa Fe’s driver selectable steer-ing mode (DSSM) set to ‘Sport’ most of the time. This dials back the power assist, which increases accordingly with ‘normal’ or ‘comfort’ settings.
There’s much more to be said about the all-new Santa Fe, and I hope to do a longer test – probably once the snow flies. Hyundai believes this is their most important new vehicle launch since the Elantra, and I would agree.
Demand for this kind of vehicle shows no sign of slowing down, and the company points out that 21 per cent of new vehicle buyers are intending to purchase a compact or intermediate CUV.
And I’ll bet a lot of them will now be putting the 2013 Santa Fe on their shopping list.

The bellowing from its dual exhausts is just icing on the cake.
Despite its 2,336 kg (5,150 lb) curb weight, the Cherokee SRT8 will bolt from zero to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds, and do the quarter mile in the mid-13s.
Braking is no less impressive, as the Brembos clamp down on its big 15-inch vented discs in front (13.78-inch in rear), tak-ing the sport ute from 60 mph to full stop in 116 feet.
Although this is a tall vehicle, with a commanding view of
the road, the SRT8 corners like a sports sedan – capable of .90 g on the skid pad. Ride is tight, but not harsh, and the steering is nicely weighted with plenty of feel.
Standard content includes carbon fibre accents; Nappa leather-faced seats with suede perforated inserts (heated and vented in front, heated in rear); heated/power tilt/telescoping steering-wheel with audio controls; keyless entry with push-button start; backup camera and rear parking sensors.
Mine also had the Luxury Group, which included power liftgate, adaptive speed control, forward collision warning, blind spot monitoring and rear cross path detection, and more leather trim inside.
Fuel economy, however, is less than stellar, rated at 17.1/11.4
litres/100 km (city/hwy). I managed just over 18 litres com-bined.
Indeed, the SRT8 Cherokee won’t be copping any Ener-Guide awards, and if everybody drove one, the nation’s fuel supply may be sucked dry within a week.
But this is really a niche vehicle.And while some purists believe that in the Grand Cherokee
SRT8, Jeep has lost its way, I would heartily disagree.Consider the M version of the BMW X5 (555 hp, $98,300),
Porsche Cayenne Turbo (500 hp, $121,900) and the Mercedes-Benz ML 63 AMG (518 hp, $99,900).
If we can build an asphalt-ripping, hot rod SUV for the well-heeled, why not one for the rest of us?

Despite the Grand Cherokee SRT8’s performance underpinnings, it is still a capable hauler with 994 litres of cargo room behind the rear seats and 1,945 litres with them folded.
A complex system, controlled by a simple five-position dial, allows the driver to tune the Grand Cherokee SRT8’s driving dynamics. Settings are Auto, Sport, Track, Tow and Snow.

TMAX at home on both highway and city streets
From page W1
tor are just a few of the higher performance tweaks.
Complementing the power increase, a new aluminum swingarm contributes to a 4 kg over-all weight reduction. And all those performance accents blend nicely with the TMAX’s get-on-and-go scooter attributes – the CVT automatic transmission, the low centre of gravity, nimble ride and handling, and the large cushy two-person seat with underseat storage.
The last time we tested a TMAX, its user-friendly ambiance encouraged a downtown trip to the market, and we decided to repeat the adventure with the new 2012 model.
Squeeze either of the brake levers, thumb the starter and the engine awakens instantly. The right-hand lever brakes the front wheel, the left-hand side stops the rear, and there is a parking brake lever on the underside of the left grip as well.
Actually, your left hand on the brake lever does the same job that your right foot does on a motorcycle, squeezing on a little back brake as a steadying influence in low speed maneuvering, or to simply smooth the jerk of takeoff when the light turns green.
And it’s good to teach your left hand these new tricks because, every once in a while, when you’re accelerating away, old habits and muscle memories kick in and your hand starts to grope for a non-existent clutch and upshift. Which is not a good thing when that lever operates a brake.
You get over it soon enough. And after a short while you might even find yourself marveling at motorcycle silliness and its antiquated dance of four-limb shifting and braking.
The TMAX made short work of our urban commute. The perky engine, improved brakes
and agile road manners seemed meant for the cut and thrust of downtown driving, yet we felt no hesitation at ramping onto highway stretch-es.
We earned a 4.7L/100km fuel economy average on our two-up trek and I cut that to 4.4L/100km combined average on later solo rides, giving me a range of about 340 km on the 15-litre tank.
The new five-spoke aluminum wheels rolled across streetcar tracks easily and handled the bumps better than the smaller rubber donuts of lesser scooters.
The illuminated underseat storage is not as big as others in its class but it swallowed one full-face helmet while we shopped, and held two bags of groceries for our return.
The newly designed, multi-function instru-mentation panel “provides a sense of depth and a 3D feeling” according to the company bumpf.
Frankly, I’d send them back to the drawing board for another try, and ask them to work on some of the flimsy interior fairing plastics while they’re at it.
But the cockpit components work well enough. The analogue speedo and tachometer surround a digital readout for dual tripmeters, clock, temp gauge, fuel gauge and fuel tripme-ter.
All-new functions for 2012 include outside air temperature, V-belt and oil maintenance indica-tors, plus average and instantaneous fuel con-sumption numbers.
The Yamaha TMAX is the number one seller in its segment in Europe. Here in Canada, maxi-scooters are a harder sell due to both climate and conservative biker biases, but an aging rider population makes them an increasingly viable option.
You will see a lot of them on popular ride routes and even on cross-country tours, usually outfitted with Yamaha’s optional top cases (39-litre for $210.95 or the 50-litre for $279.95).
As far as competitors go, Honda does not offer the Silver Wing in Canada but consumers can consider Suzuki’s Burgman lineup and the new upscale BMW models.
But really, you don’t have to look any further than the TMAX for an able blend of sport design and scooter friendliness, and a viable alternative for riders who are brave enough to break with convention and embrace a kind of light-hearted practicality.
It’s a fun ride. And I think we looked pretty good on the handsome, white TMAX.
We certainly looked fast.Tom Hanks, eat your heart out.
