Marco Muzzo was sentenced to 10 years in prison for wiping out an entire generation of the Neville-Lake family, but if such sentences don’t help reduce drinking and driving num-bers, then what is the point?
This is the conversation that many mem-bers of Canada’s judicial community are having
in the wake of the sentence Muzzo received Tuesday.
Although this is the longest sentence hand-ed down to an impaired driver without a his-tory of offences in Ontario, police and lawyers are wondering what needs to change outside the courtroom to make a dent in the numbers.
The reality is, the numbers make for ugly reading.
A statistician with York Regional Police found that between 2013 and 2015, the num-ber of drunk drivers caught by the service rose 43 per cent, from 795 to 1,140.
More recently, just as Muzzo’s sentence was being handed down on Tuesday, York Regional Police reported a “disappointing”

‘ears’ to ya!
By Jeremy [email protected]
Opinion has been left sharply divided on Stouffville’s ‘Anorexic Bunny’ – a story that has caused an uproar online.
Comments came in thick and fast after the Sun-Tribune published a story on its website – yorkregion.com – detailing a day in the life of Wayne Rose, the Anorexic Bunny himself.
In it, Rose explains how his – some say misguided – effort to make children smile ended in disaster and hurt feelings.
Rose said he dressed up in a rabbit suit last Thursday and did a dance in front of Summitview Public School on Stouffville’s Main Street before speaking with the principal and handing her candy for the children.
He said she was happy with his antics that included dancing in front of a school window to make children smile.
However, his second encounter on Main Street, he said, led to a woman throwing out his candy and yelling at him to stop his activi-ties.
On his back he had a sign saying “Anorexic Bunny” on it, which he said related to his friends calling him “Anorexic Santa” when he dressed up as St. Nick at Christmas.
He said it was a joke, considering the fact that he’s lost plenty of weight while undergoing cancer treatments.
When Rose finally returned home, he was met by two police officers who he says laughed at his gimmick.
But many have not taken this as a joke at all.Lisa Williams-Rozario said parents at the school were left very wor-
ried, saying about 14 friends from the school contacted her about the story, wondering if “everything was OK” after it went up online.
She further noted that the principal at the school, Melanie Duckett-Wilson, personally told her there were inaccuracies in Rose’s story.
(Despite repeated attempts to reach Duckett-Wilson, The Sun-Tribune has been unable to contact her.)
“I feel horrible he is suffering from such a terrible disease,” she said. “But I am not sure at what point he thought it would be a good idea to go hang around a school and want to hand out candy without contacting the school or making arrangements in advance.”
She added that many parents had voiced concern over social media.
The police meanwhile want to assure residents there were no arrests or charges laid, but urged caution from anyone wanting to do this sort of thing the next time.
“We did identify him and ended up speaking with him,” Const. Andy Pattenden told The Sun-Tribune. “He said that he was just trying to spread some Easter cheer. We advised while his intentions may have been good, that his actions can result in concerns from the school and the community.”
However Rose had his supporters, too, with some suggesting over social media that people overreacted.
“Shame on the awful heartless people out there; I would give this guy a great big hug that he deserves. Not only is he putting a smile on some people’s faces he is making himself feel better naturally which no drug could provide him,” said an account registered to Pat Moody.
“People are so cruel,” wrote the account of Timothy Jackson. “This man just wanted to spread some joy.”
Two of the three employees injured dur-ing a rocket-fuel explosion last week have left the hospital and are convalescing, while a third remains.
And that man’s prognosis is improving, the owner of Whitchurch-Stouffville’s Cesa-roni Technologies said.
Anthony Cesaroni told the Stouffville Sun Tribune that emergency safety proto-cols worked as expected during a rocket-fuel explosion at the business in the com-munity of Gormley last Thursday.
“Everything was contained and every-thing functioned as it was supposed to,” he said.
However, he further added that the inci-dent is under investigation and he cannot expand on matters.
Police said that both the fire marshal and insurance are investigating.
After the 10:30 a.m. explosion, one man was airlifted to a Toronto hospital and Stouffville Road was closed, east of Wood-bine, where the company sits.
A friend identified one of the injured men as Jeroen Louwers and said he is “badly burned”.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Re: Neighbours have concerns with 10-sto-rey building, March 24.
While I can’t disagree with Mr. Von Rich-ter that the artist’s sketch of the proposed new condo building at 5531 Main St. is not the most attractive looking building, nothing could be more of a “sore sight” when people enter Stouffville, than that section of Main Street from Hwy. 48 to just west of Ringwood Drive.
What a first impression of Stouffville that makes on people who have never been there!
P. MoffattBallantrae
Beware of hot water tank scamsLast fall we were approached at least five
times by a team of people attempting to gain access to our basement to “inspect” our hot water tank.
They claimed they needed to know the date the tank was made to determine if upgrades were needed.
I told them that Enercare, from whom we now rent the tank, would already have that information. If Enercare wished to conduct an inspection, I was certain they would send us a letter.
I repelled them each time, though they were aggressive enough to wave their photo ID tags at me and remove their shoes and
walk right in!This past week I was approached by yet
another team from another organization, designed to look “official”.
They carried ID tags and a binder with a TSSA logo prominently displayed.
They, too, tried to enter forcefully by tak-ing off their shoes.
They stated they needed to check our hot water tank efficiency.
This really looked fishy, as I know you need instrumentation such as thermom-eters, specific charts or computer programs and a good working knowledge of thermo-dynamics to check efficiency properly.
They terminated their attempted entry and abruptly walked away, stating they would return another day to complete their “inspection”.
Homeowners, and particularly seniors, need to know that these “inspections” are mere attempts to gain a signature on a rental contract.
It’s a scam, plain and simple. Do not let these people bluff you into any
entry, let alone sign any document that is purported to be an “inspection document”.
You can be locked into a longer term and more expensive rental contract before you know it.

Delivery issues?
ow was your long weekend, W h i t c h u r c h -Stouffville?
Did you lap up three or four days worth? Or was it really five, if you could throw in last Thursday’s snow day?
And how much Easter was really in your Easter break?
According to the last census (2011), about two-thirds of we Whitchurch-Stouffvillians are or were Christian.
By checking that box on the census form, I’ll then assume most know about the cross, the big rock – and that The Last Supper isn’t just a big painting hanging in Italy.
Yet, I wonder how many thousands of us don’t actually mark Easter as Easter?
I’m afraid it’s just another break from the work and school routine. Another chance to get together with family and friends, hopefully over a large spread and bever-ages of your choice.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I’ll vote for more time off, says the guy who was writing much of this on Monday, while his friends who work in banking, munici-pal government or the educa-tion system were waking up late and walking around in their pyjamas before enjoying an afternoon siesta.
Not bitter. Honest.In a commuter town, where
folks board the GO train or get behind the wheel at ungodly early-morning hours and return long after dark every day, family time is precious and precarious.
But if someone could fill me in on the significance, religious or otherwise, of Easter Monday as a holiday it would be appre-ciated.
It’s really not fair to pick on just Easter, is it?
How many folks really take part in union-related activities during the Labour Day week-end — unless going to The Ex or buying schools supplies
from people who are working for the minimum wage count.
How many of us could identify Queen Victoria in a police lineup? Yet, we unof-ficially welcome summer in these parts by lighting fire-crackers in her name every May.
The August long weekend. Is is the Civic Holiday or Lord Simcoe Day? Does anybody care?
Canada Day gets it. Family Day is OK, too.
Thank you, Dalton McGuinty.Thanksgiving is all about
food. If we can take a moment to be grateful for said eats, I’m cool with it.
Christmas? See Easter.If we agree to keep all of
these days off, let’s look at renaming the boring and the dated.
Terry Fox deserves a nation-al holiday over anybody else in this country. (If Terry was American, your know there would be an annual four-day extravaganza in his name south of the border. We’re too modest.)
So do our First Nations communities, the folks who were here first, way before that Confederation thing we cele-brate so gleefully every Dec. 1.
Any other deserving nominations, Whitchurch-Stouffville?

t was a vision that became a real-ity; an ambition that became an achieve-ment.
It was a structural cre-ation 50 years ago. It’s an educational inspiration today.
On June 15, 1966, thirty-nine families welcomed the proposal with prayer. At 7 p.m., April 25, 2016, many will applaud the project with praise. For good reason.
Stouffville’s St. Mark Catholic School will cel-ebrate a half-century of ser-vice to this community. All former staff, students and trustees are invited.
Looking back, board member Dr. Terry O’Connor recalls discussions concern-ing a new Catholic school in Stouffville began circulat-ing among people attend-ing an organization called St. Jude’s Club. From there it was further discussed within St. Patrick’s parish in Markham.
Initially, a site fronting on Hwy. 47 was the trust-ees’ choice. This was later changed to a five-acre prop-erty with access from Elm Road.
“They, (St. Patrick’s), were a tremendous help,” says Terry. A ratepayers meeting held later in Stouffville’s Royal Canadian Legion accorded the proposal whole-hearted support. However, a report completed by town assessor Lloyd Turner showed only 106 children would initially attend.
“We were hoping for 300 students,” remembers Terry. “We soon reached that number,” he added, “filling five classrooms and a por-table.”
While the school’s com-pletion was scheduled for the fall of ’65, a shortage of materials delayed construc-tion, O’Connor said. At this point, an arrangement was made with the Legion and the Masonic Lodge to utilize
their buildings.“Both organizations
helped us greatly,” O’Connor recalls. Two buses, owned and operated by Albert and Roy Heise, transport-ed students to Stouffville from a wide area. In addi-tion to Terry O’Connor, other board members at the time included: Dr. Denis O’Connor, chair; Jack McDermott, vice-chair; Bill Kamps, treasurer; Robert Carey and Don Gibson. Joan Kamps later served as board secretary.
“Joan was a key to our success,” says Terry. “She did almost everything,” adds wife Colleen.
For several months, Terry volunteered as the school’s janitor with a workplace in the boiler room. The board met in a rear portable; the gym was half its present size and the first principal, Jack Condon, taught half-time. His salary was in the range of $3,600 to $4,600.
Guest speaker at the offi-cial dedication was Msgr. W.S. Carville of Augustine’s Seminary, Toronto and for-mer priest at St. Patrick’s. Other platform invitees included reeve Ken Laush-way, Stouffville; reeve Ross Farquharson, Whitchurch; reeve Stewart Rumble, Markham; principal Wil-liam Duxbury, Stouffville District High School; prin-cipal Lorne Boadway, Sum-mitview Public School and
principal Keith Sutherland, Orchard Park Public School.
It was during the cere-mony that board vice-chair-man McDermott quipped: “It’s a little bit shocking to be opening a school when there is no school.”
The $170,000 building wasn’t ready for occupancy until several months later. It would be described as “the most significant design of any school in the area”.
Even back then, the trustees had the foresight to plan an addition. This occurred in 1991. The pres-ent enrollment stands at 378 with a staff of 35 headed by principal Derm Fitzpat-rick. French immersion will be added in September.
Carol Hainschwang, a St. Mark teacher back in the early ‘80s, was affection-ately known as “Mrs. Mom” to her kindergarten kids. But to son Brad, a pupil in the class, she was just plain “Mom”.
Vibrant at age 70, this mother of three and grand-mother of five clearly recalls her job interview by the principal in a portable at the rear of the school. She retired in 2011.
Staff teacher Susan Whi-tebread, now instructing a second student generation, is a member of the school anniversary committee along with Lisa Lauriault, Silvia Chin and Souraya Chab Majdalani assisted by parents Andrea Doufexis, Deborah Civello and Nada Francella.
The program will include two choirs; a glee club and a Grade 4 dance group. Stu-dents from grades 7 and 8 will serve as a welcoming committee.
Susan, a teacher and extra-curricular choir direc-tor since 1999, will regretta-bly retire at the end of June.

Twenty years after former premier Mike Harris intro-duced the Sunshine List to shine light on top earners in Ontario’s public service, the disclosure act has backfired by driving up salaries, a York University professor says.
“The list has been perverted from what its original intent was,” administrative studies professor Richard Leblanc, an expert in law, governance and ethics, said.
The annual list, launched in 1996, reveals the names of public sector employees, such as those working for the provincial government, municipal governments, hospitals and school boards, with salaries of $100,000 or more.
The initial intent of the legislation was worthy, even as it came with an added perception of embarrassing sup-posedly overpaid public service workers, because it pro-moted the idea of pay for performance among top wage earners and encouraged accountability, Leblanc said.
But, in reality, salaries have climbed as workers dis-covered their peers made the list and they felt they were worthy of earning comparable salaries, Leblanc said.
There were 115,431 workers on this year’s Sunshine List, with combined salaries of more than $14.8 billion.
There were 4,457 workers on the list in 1996. Up until 2000, there were fewer than 10,000. By 2003, that had increased to about 20,000. By 2007, there were about 42,000 on the list and by 2011, there were just shy of 80,000.
“It is negative. It has the undesired effect of ratcheting pay upwards. That’s because when you flick on a switch and have complete disclosure, you have people who use peers to put upward pressure on pay-setters and the regulators, the governments, have not addressed this issue, this notion of what’s called peer benchmarking,” Leblanc said.Read the entire story on yorkregion.com

Your Main Street is getting a major make-over during the next four years, Stouffville.
Town council last week formed the Steer-ing Committee for the Main Street Recon-struction project set to take place between 2016 and 2019.
Since the project affects the busiest street in Stouffville, several business owners, resi-dents and GO train commuters, reconstruc-tion has been split into phases.
The first phase – starting this summer – includes the main drag from Stouffer Street to Tenth Line.
In 2017, construction will continue between Park Drive and Stouffer Street, in 2018, between Albert Street and Park Drive and finally in 2019 between Ninth Line and Albert Street.
The $10.6-million reconstruction proj-ect aims to improve roads and transporta-tion infrastructure. It will upgrade pedestri-an safety near the GO train station, upsize water mains and sewers and improve drain-age. Street lights will be replaced and other streetscape improvements made to “enhance the visual aesthetic of Main Street,” according to a council report.
Town council decided on the steering committee that includes three members of council – Rick Upton, Iain Lovatt and Rob Hargrave of wards 4, 5 and 6, respectively.
CAO Marc Pourvahidi, Director of Public Works Rob Flindall and Director of Develop-
ment Services Steven Kemp are also included in the committee.
The Downtown Stouffville Working Group, the Heritage Advisory Committee, the Acces-sibility Advisory Committee and the Stouffville Chamber of Commerce are each represented by one member.
Since the project affects the busiest
street in Stouffville, several business
owners, residents and GO train
commuters, reconstruction has been
split into phases.
Four members of the public will be added. Council will review applications from the community to decide who that will be.
At 14 members, Councillor Hugo Kroon expressed his concern that the committee may be “bogged down” and inhibit progress.
“I find smaller groups are more effective,” he said at council.
“I rather see the committee populated with professionals, stakeholders and people with experience, a lean committee that can move more quickly,” Kroon added.
Pourvahidi responded by saying town staff finds the size to be “relatively good” and “func-tional” to move forward. Council decided to place its three members on rotation to strike a balance with the committee size.
Construction work on Main
Street begins this year and
continues through 2019.

Amazing relief forback pain and sciatica
Sciatica Relief ChiropractorDr. Zunaid Kagdi D.C., says:In 12 years of practice, I’ve neverseen a treatment as effective as Non-Surgical Advanced Bio-StructuralCorrection for patients with sciatica orlower back pain
long weekend of impaired driving on our roads. Thirteen drivers were arrested and charged with alcohol and drug-related crimi-nal offences between March 24 at 11 p.m. and March 28 at 1:40 a.m.
Criminal defence lawyer Ari Goldkind, who often works in York Region, said Muzzo is not his main concern. He said he’d rather focus on the countless drunk drivers who walk into Newmarket courthouse daily before having their “wrists slapped” with a $1,000 fine and a one-year driving ban.
“What happened to Marco Muzzo was the equivalent of a public lynching,” he said. “We all point our fingers at Marco Muzzo as if he woke up in bed and decided to go out to be Paul Bernardo. But, in reality, the only differ-ence between him and another drunk driver is he had the misfortune of ploughing into the beautiful Neville-Lake family.”
He said rather than engage in a public show court, like he contends occurred with Muzzo in the media and on “anti-social media”, the public needs to shame the “10,000 other drunk drivers” in our court system.
To do this, Goldkind says two things need to happen. The first is that the government needs to lower the drinking level from 0.8 per cent blood alcohol level, which drivers are cur-rently allowed in their systems, to zero.
Goldkind is not the only one who thinks this is the obvious next step for the province.
York police Const. Andy Pattenden said removing the decision about whether to have
“one or two” drinks before getting behind the wheel would go a long way toward lowering drinking and driving numbers.
“If you could remove that decision, it would make it an easier choice for people,” he said. “As it stands, the law gives some people the ability to have some, but others too much.”
Const. Pattenden said the system we cur-rently have is often left up to doubt, relying on citizens to decide whether they have had too much to drink.
He said the reality is if hearing and watch-ing the details of Jennifer Neville-Lake’s story doesn’t stop people from drinking and driving, which it clearly hasn’t, in York Region at least, then what will?
“Every person in York Region knows this story,” he said. “And still every weekend in York Region a significant number of impaired people continue to make that decision know-ing the worst possible outcome. Then what will it take?”
The second suggestion by Goldkind is to threaten every impaired driver with jail.
“The message is not getting through and police don’t have the resources,” he said. “As crude an instrument as jail is, I would say prison is on the table until behaviour changes.”
Muzzo is expected to spend upwards of three years behind bars when time served and parole are factored in to the sentence. Muzzo, who pleaded guilty, is also banned from driv-ing for 12 years after his time in custody.
The collision killed Daniel Neville-Lake, 9, his brother Harrison, 5, their sister Milly, 2, and their grandfather, Gary Neville, 65.

he past two months have been an exciting time for the provincial and federal gov-
ernments, as budgets for both were tabled in their respective legislatures.
The centrepiece of the Ontario budget was making post-secondary education more accessible and afford-able for low to middle income students across Ontario through the single-largest modernization ever of the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP).
Starting in the 2017/18 school year, the Ontario Stu-dent Grant will make average tuition free for more than 150,000 students across the province that come from fam-ilies with incomes of $50,000 or less. The changes we will be making to OSAP will also mean providing the major-ity of eligible students whose parents earn the median annual income of $83,000 or less with enough in grants to more than cover their tuition costs.
We will also be ensur-ing that no eligible student
receives less non-repayable aid through the new grant than they are currently eli-gible for through the 30% Off Ontario Tuition Grant.
Moreover, we will provide additional support for full-time mature and married stu-dents, and eligibility will no longer be tied to the number of years a student has been out of high school.
I’m extremely proud to be part of a government that believes in investing in future generations. By breaking down barriers to post-sec-ondary education our govern-ment is demonstrating that our youth are one of the most valuable assets we have for creating jobs for tomorrow.
Another piece of the Ontario budget is the Long-Term Affordable Housing Strategy, which commits up to $100 million for hous-ing allowances and support services to help up to 4,000 families and individuals in new supportive housing over the next three years. In the long term, capital funding will support the construction of up to 1,500 new supportive housing units.
Last week, the federal gov-ernment introduced its 2016 budget, which in my opinion, demonstrates that the federal government shares Ontario’s priorities and values of a collaborative approach for economic growth and job creation. Many of the new investments announced by the federal government will benefit our community of Oak Ridges – Markham.
As always, if you wish to learn more about the pro-grams in the provincial bud-get or have any other provin-cial related issue, please feel free to contact my constitu-ency office at 905-294-4931 or [email protected]

They’re online, connected and far more adept at social media than anyone before them.
But past the screens they spend most of their day looking at, teenagers face unprec-edented and cumbersome challenges in their lives. One organization – Young Life – in Stouffville aims to help teens face those chal-lenges through their most formative years.
On April 12, Young Life is hosting a fund-raiser at Stouffville’s Royal Canadian Legion. The event features music from the Marion Drexler Band, free appetizers and desserts as well as presentations about Young Life’s vision in Stouffville.
The organization helps teens establish and enhance their values and self-confidence through the promotion of Christian moral values.
Stouffville’s branch opened two years ago, but the organization has been present in parts of Canada since 1954 when it first started in New Westminster, British Columbia.
“Teens today are so conscious of what other people think of them and they get so
insecure,” said Young Life committee mem-ber Diana Bohemier. “I think one of the most freeing lessons in life is you have to do what you believe is right and not worry about what others think.”
Teens are paired with group leaders, young adults in their early to mid-twenties. Group leaders act as mentors volunteering to spend time with teenagers, engaging them by tex-ting, going out for lunch and participating in activities together.
“We only have one person on salary, Sam Bligh (area director),” Bohemier said. “All the rest of the leaders are volunteers.”
A committee of older adults oversees oper-ations and finances. Young Life’s budget isn’t that big, but costs include taking participating teenagers out for lunch and paying for various activities.
Chairperson Catherine Eeuwes will host the fundraiser. Stouffville’s branch of Young Life hosted a square-dance fundraiser at the Stouffville Arena last year.
The legion is at 50 Mostar St. and the fund-raiser runs from 7 to 9 p.m. For more informa-tion contact Catherine Eeuwes at [email protected]

5 home projects to help you save moneyIt’s renovation season, and with so many projects on the to-do list, which should you tackle first? While some projects provide great long-term re-turn on investment, a few simple ones can provide instant savings. Here are the top five home projects to help you save money:
Caulk around windows and doors - Stop air leaks around your home by sealing existing gaps and cracks. Use caulking or weather stripping around doors and windows. Installing a door sweep is also a good idea.
Insulate your home - Use insulation with a high R-value, such as Roxul Comfortbatt, which can be used to top up insulation in your attic. Aim for an R-value of 50 or a depth of 16 inches (41 cm). For whole home efficiency, ensure other areas of your home are well insulated, such as crawl spaces, basement headers, walls and ceilings. It will keep your house cool in the warm weather and take the stress off your air conditioning unit.
Clean your AC unit - Come spring, it’s not un-common to find your air conditioner’s condenser and compressor blocked up with dirt and debris. This can result in greater stress on the unit, causing it to work harder. Giving it a thorough cleaning is easy and can help maximize your AC unit’s service life while minimizing your energy bill.
Plant trees - Direct sunlight can heat up surfaces and building materials, as well as the interior tem-perature of your home. Consider planting trees in strategic locations to provide shade and reduce
cooling costs.Install a rain barrel - Water is an important, but
costly resource. Installing a rain barrel is an easy and affordable measure to reduce your water consump-tion in the spring and summer, while keeping your lawn and garden looking great.
These simple home maintenance tasks can be well worth the effort, potentially providing hun-dreds of dollars in annual savings.

The arrival of warmer weather means dif-ferent things to different people. Some anticipate opportunities for outdoor fun, while others may be considering redeco-rating or remodelling their homes. For the latter group, home improvement season provides a great opportunity to make homes more eco-friendly.
When planning home improvement projects, it’s best to first choose a proj-ect and then look for ways to make the project more environmentally friendly. Such an approach may not only benefit the environment, but it also may benefit homeowners’ bottom lines.
InterIor decoratIng
Longer days and warmer temperatures often translate into wanting to freshen up the interior of a home. Heavy drap-eries and comforters are put away, and lighter fabrics are taken out of storage. Whenever possible, reuse or repurpose items you already have rather than pur-chasing new items. Longer drapes can be cut and hemmed to be used as win-dow treatments in other rooms. Making a patchwork blanket out of old T-shirts is a crafty project that makes use of items
that would otherwise be destined for landfills.
When laundering linens, skip the en-ergy-using dryer and let items line dry in the sun and fresh air.
If you decide to purchase some new items, look for products made from sus-tainable or organic fabrics. Hemp and bamboo textiles have grown in popu-larity. Hemp and bamboo plants grow quickly, and their durability makes these materials smart choices.
When replacing items around the house, donate older items to a charitable organization.
Flowers and plants
Spring and summer call to mind beau-tiful blooming plants. Relying on native, sustainable plants is practical, environ-mentally friendly and cost-effective.
Sustainable plants are native plants. Native plants sustain local wildlife more effectively than non-native alternatives, so include native plants in your sustain-able garden. Native plants also are less reliant on pesticides and herbicides to keep them healthy and viable.
Don’t forget to bring plants indoors as
well. Even though you may be opening the windows more, indoor plants can filter and purify indoor air. Certain com-mon indoor plants naturally remove toxic agents such as benzene, formal-dehyde and trichloroethylene from the air. Efficient air cleaning is accomplished with at least one plant per 100 square feet of home or office space.
proper dIsposal
Spring cleaning is another tradition for many families come the end of win-ter and dawn of spring. Many people use spring as a time to go through closets and garages to remove items they no longer use or need. In an effort to clean up fast, some people may dispose of chemical products, paints, treated lum-ber, and many other items in ways that can be damaging to the environment. Always learn local municipal guidelines for proper disposal of potentially harm-ful products. Area recycling centres may have drop-off areas for stains and paints, used motor oil and other potentially harmful products.
Before discarding something, see if it can be donated or sold. This will result in
fewer items ending up in landfills.Exercise caution outdoors as well.
Runoff from cleaning products used on home siding or driveways can leach into the surrounding soil or find its way into sewage drains that ultimately direct flu-ids to public waterways. Choose environ-
mentally responsible products whenever possible.
Springtime renovation and cleaning projects provide the perfect opportunity to adopt eco-friendly practices that pay dividends for years to come.

The Stouffville peewee AEs hoist the York Simcoe champion-ship trophy at the Clippers Sports Complex Monday night.

Clippers score pair of York Simcoe championshipsMinor midgets capture town’s first AA title
The Stouffville minor midget AA Clippers accomplished a first for the Whitchurch-Stouffville Minor Hockey Association Sunday.
They won the organization’s first ever AA season-ending title after capturing the York Simcoe championship that culminated with a 6-1 win over the Aurora Tigers in the final game of their first-to-six-point final series in Aurora.
The Clippers got off to an impressive start by scoring the game’s first two goals off the sticks of Nolan MacInnis and Sam Atanack-ovich to take a 2-1 lead entering the first intermission. Carrying that momentum into the second period, the Clippers put some breath-ing room between themselves and Aurora by adding two more goals, from Adrian McCartney and Joel Roberts, to take a 4-1 advantage.
The Clippers’ iced the game with empty-net markers from James Carlin and MacInnis. Jackson Brandon and Connor Hicks earned assists. Clippers’ netminder Dalton Lehman was solid.
The series came down to the final game after Aurora staved off elimination by defeating the Clippers 3-2 at the Stouffville Arena Saturday. In that game, the two clubs played to a 1-1 tie through the opening period before Aurora scored two unanswered goals in the second.
The Clippers battled back with a goal late in the third period from MacInnis, but could get no closer. Roberts scored the Clippers’ first goal with an assist from McCartney.
Coached by Phil von Kaufmann, Chris Burkholder and Chuck Vasconcelos, other team members contributing to the Clippers’ title run included: goalkeeper Thomas Morgan, Ben Partridge, Aaron Jackson, Chandler Gloyns, Myles Craven, Sam Burkholder, Ryan von Kaufmann, Michael Freitas and Nick Smith. Daryl Gloyns and Ken Wilson Sr. served as trainers and Andrea Lehman, team manager.

Peewee AE team takes trophy in O.T.
The Stouffville peewee AE Clippers skated off with the York Simcoe Hockey League title after edg-ing the Barrie Colts Blue entry 2-1 in overtime to capture their first-to-six-point final series six points to two at the Clippers Complex Monday.
With Barrie opening the scoring in the first period and maintaining a 1-0 lead through two, Stouffville battled back in the third to gain the equalizer and set the stage for overtime.
While the Clippers only required four games to win the series, each outing was closely contested as Stouffville took the series opener 3-2 in overtime at the Stouffville Arena March 20, before suffering their lone setback 2-1 the following day in Barrie.
The Clippers though, gained the upper hand with a 3-2 road win Saturday to set the stage for Monday’s finale that was decided in extra time.
Coached by Ross Geiger, Craig Berry and Marc Luff, team members included: goalkeepers Charlie Berry, who filled in on an emergency situation dur-ing the first two games for regulars Adrian Nowas-key and Ethan Pacheco. Other forwards and defen-semen included: Joshua Arbuckle, Owen Burrows, Matthew Ferrus, Matthew Geiger, Mark Gilmour, Michael Hume, Matt Luff, David Karl Nebitko, Evan Prentice, Hayden Simon, Connor Cindery, Nicho-las Smith, Alexander Tratnik, Nolan Turney, Evan Carter, Aidan Holt and Ethan Pompilio.
Todd Sindrey served as trainer and Sharon Tay-lor, manager.

Brad Barton out as coach/GM with Blind River Beavers
Brad Barton’s tenure with the Blind River Beavers of the Northern Ontario Junior
Hockey League was brief.In fact it lasted just one season.Taking on the position as head coach and
general manager for the 2015-16 season, the former Stouffville Spirit assistant coach stepped down from his position Friday.
While Blind River finished in the West Division cellar with a 10-40-4-24 record, the Vancouver Canucks’ draft pick had inherited a club that had failed to win a game prior to his arrival and managed just one tie in 52 games.
“With no regrets I inform you that I am no longer coach of the Blind River Beavers. Very proud of the boys and excited for the future,” the 43-year-old Stouffville resident said in a message on his Twitter account.
– Michael Hayakawa
Peewee girls advance to finals after shootout win in Belleville
The Markham Stouffville peewee BB Stars skated off with the Lower Lakes Female Hockey League East Division championship that culminated with a 3-2 road shootout win over the Belleville Bears in the third and deciding game of their series Sunday afternoon.
The Stars won the first game 3-2 in Bel-leville March 20 before suffering a 4-1 loss on home ice to set the stage for their dra-matic finish.
With the victory, the Stars punched their ticket into the LLFHL championship week-end tournament to be held in North York this weekend.
Coached by Steve Mccusker, Dave Duch-eck and Dave Fantini, team members includ-ed: Logan Assinck, Sydney Degraauw, Madi-son DiBello, Zoë Ducheck, Amanda Fantini, Kelsie Fung, Juliana Hill, Isabelle Kastanis, Olivia Mara, Gillian Marsh, Paige McCusker, Jade Morton, Emily Paisley, Amy Soetikno, Ella Sullivan, Mali Tucker and Reese Wal-lace. Additional team staff included: trainers Grace Jung and Gloria Paisley, and manager Jennifer Fantini.
In reaching the east division final, the Stars downed the West Northumberland Wild in their quarter-final series and then downed the Whitby Wildcats in the semifi-nals.
Earlier this season the Stars captured three gold medals and one silver in tourna-ments they also took part in.

DryerVent Cleaning,Repair, Installation Tyler Johnson
Q How do I preventa dryer fire?&
There is a reported dryer fire on average every 2 days in Ontario.All dryer fires are preventable.The warningsigns that your dryer needs maintenance are; Clothes take longer than a regular cycle to dry, there is a buildup of lint in and around the back of the dryer, there is little to no lint on the lint screen, the dryer gets veryhot to the touch, the laundry room gets very humid when the dryer is running, there is plastic or metal foilventing behind your dryer, the outside vent has a build up of lint on it. If you are experiencing any of theseissues, you are at risk of a dryer fire and are likely wasting energy. Dryer Vent Wizard specialist cleans,installs, repairs and alter vents. We also de-lint the inside of most dryer models. A clean, properly installeddryer vent can also help decrease energy costs by $18 to $24 per month while giving you peace of mind.

YORK REGION’STUDOR-TRIBUTE CHORALE
BY MICHAEL [email protected]
Stouffville’s Daniella Grant has a penchant for learn-ing to do things in rather quick fashion.
That’s been evident on the rugby pitch, when she first took to playing the game as a Grade 9 student at Bill Crothers Secondary School in Unionville.
It’s been a blessing for more than Grant.Rugby Canada has also been pleased with her progress
as she’s now donning a national team jersey as a member of Canada’s under-18 junior women’s 15s squad.
Playing the wing, fullback and centre positions, Grant will make her international debut this spring when the 24-member Canadian squad travels overseas to England where they will play their under-18 counterparts in two matches April 5 and 9 at Bicton College in Devon.
“For some reason things just clicked with my body and I picked the game up quickly,” she said. “By the time my first 15s season rolled around I was a starting player. I could not believe that I was playing with the Grade 12s, it was an incredible feeling.”
Along with playing for her school where she recently returned from the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations wrestling championships in Windsor and finished fourth in her 54-kilogram weight class after winning the York Region Athletic Association title, Grant has nurtured her skills with the Aurora Barbarians where she’s been a member for the last three years and was a member of Rugby Ontario’s under-16 15s team in 2014 and the under-18 squad last year.
“I’m extremely proud and excited to pull the Canadian jersey over my head,” she said.
In earning a berth on the junior women’s squad, Grant cited it was a drawn-out process that was initiated when
some 58 athletes from across Canada attended a camp in Kingston last October.
With additional prospects identified since that camp to where they now had a total of 75 players on hand, five regional camps were set up across Canada in January to try and whittle down that number.
From the regional camps that were held in January and first week of February, the final 24 players that made the final cut, which included Grant, were officially named Feb. 16.
“There were some pretty talented girls there and the competition was tough,” she said. “But I really wanted to make the team, so I tried to give 110 per cent effort all the time.”
It wasn’t all about the game.“Even though everyone was very competitive, we
were like sisters off the field,” she said. “I have made so many new friends from around the country. They are all such incredible girls and I’m so grateful to have been able to meet all of them and continue the dream with 23 of them.”
Before making the trip to England though, Grant will be in British Columbia this week where she will play for the Rugby Ontario under-18s seven’s team at the national championships.
In earning a berth on the junior women’s team, Grant hopes it will jump start her career in the sport and she would like to run with it as far as possible.
She hopes it will enable her to play for the Humber College Hawks where she wants to enrol in a sports/fit-ness related program and then bridge to the University of Guelph.
“I would like to continue playing rugby at the highest level to wherever it will take me,” she said.
Stouffville’s Daniella Grant plays on Canada’s U18 rugby team.

y the end of his short life, Jonathan Leitao had trav-elled to 15 countries.
His father, Vince Leitao, remembers the
time his family — he and his wife Espy, son Jonathan and older son Matthew — took an excursion on a submarine during a Caribbean vacation.
Leitao remembers how excited Jonathan was by the visu-ally stunning displays and all the other trips the family took together.
Unfortunately, young Jona-than was also forced to travel a journey no parent wants his or her child to take.
Jonathan began feeling sick in October of 2013. After that, he endured tests, surgery and hospi-tal admissions.
In May 2014, he was diag-nosed with a type of untreatable liver cancer that is extremely uncommon in patients under age 25.
Doctors predicted he had four to nine months to live.
For Vince and Espy Leitao, this devastating news was incompre-hensible.
This was their beloved son who loved practising basketball for hours in the driveway of their
Teenager Jonathan Leitao became a source
of inspiration and comfort to his family
within himself that liberated him.”
This teenager became a pillar of wisdom and strength for his family.
“It was a tragedy,” Leitao said. “Our kid was dying, yet comfort was coming from him. He asked me, ‘Are you going to be OK?’ I said ‘no’. He said, ‘You have to accept it, let go, then you will be OK.’ I never taught him that. Where does a 16-year-old get this insight, this wisdom?”
Jonathan was a student at St. Mary Immaculate Catholic Ele-mentary School in Richmond Hill and went on to attend St. Theresa of Lisieux Catholic High School.
His obituary explains his final months.
“For the last 10 months he suffered bravely and patiently, prayerfully hoping for a cure. He eventually accepted that he is going home after just about 16 years on this earth, and helped us accept and let go.”
Jonathan wanted to help other sick children, to explain to them the procedures he’d had so they wouldn’t be afraid.
When he became sick, he real-ized he couldn’t do this and was
hoping his father could help such children, instead.
Leitao wrote a self-published book Jonathan, Do You Know Me? From loss of a child to spiritual awakening, published in 2015. It is a personal story of loss and grief tran-scended by a spiritual awakening.
Proceeds from the book are being donated to The Hospital for Sick Children Foundation in honour of Jonathan.
Leitao knows his son would also have been happy to learn of his advocacy for changes to Ontario’s Employment Standards Act. Leitao has lobbied for the introduction of Jonathan’s Law, a bill dedicated to the memory of Jonathan that requests a provision of up to a 52-week bereavement leave for par-ents who lose a child.

Richmond Hill home. But when told he was dying,
Jonathan had little anguish, his father said. He cried for about 20 minutes. After that, he spoke like it was an event that was happen-ing and moved on, Leitao said.
“That’s what changed my life,” Leitao said. “Jonathan said: ‘I’m not afraid to die. It’s nothing’,” Leitao said.
“I was amazed, looking at the way he was holding himself (together) and talking. It’s a spirit
