"I know a lot of residents who are in the boat." However, the town has decided to discontinue the pilot and revert to its previous rule that prohibits onstreet parking between 2 and 6 a.m. from Nov. 15 to April 15 to allow for the clearing of snow. A staff report reviewing the pilot highlighted a number of issues, including being able to meet snow clearing time targets and patrons of local businesses not being able to park on the street when a snow event was called during the day. Those convinced council this was not the right solution. The same report stated the town will look at education and enforcement efforts to

left everyone parked on the street scrambling to find a place to put their vehicles. But Smith isn’t convinced. "I thought the pilot was very well done," he said. "It’s about treating the community like adults, reverting to the ban seems silly and like we are moving backward." For many households, a driveway only has enough room for two vehicles,

which means additional vehicles need to be parked somewhere. He also points out that many have basement apartments to help pay the bills and this restriction on parking during the winter months hinders people’s ability to be financially self-sufficient. "It was also implied that offenders would only get tickets if the (snow plow) blades were on the ground," he said. "It makes

me question why have the rule in the first place then." He also worries the bylaw department may become inundated with complaints about people parking on the street during these months. Coun. Paul Pirri acknowledged this would inconvenience some, but felt the important thing is to have the roads cleared of snow by 7:30 a.m. when people are beginning their commute to work. While council decided the pilot program was not in the best interest of the town and voted to discontinue it, it’s not the end to the on-street parking discussion. Coun. Harold Kim previously asked town staff to explore the feasibility of implementing a just-intime parking permit system that would allow residents to purchase tickets through the town and park on the street overnight when needed. Aurora’s customer service director Techa van Leeuwen advised that the technology needed to offer this service is listed in the town’s 2018 capital project budget and could be up and running very shortly after it is approved.

Central York firefighters first in Canada to get life-saving cameras LISA QUEEN lqueen@yrmg.com Five years ago, Central York firefighters saved the life of a woman trapped in a burning multi-residential home in Newmarket, using a hand-held thermal imaging camera to find her in a smoke-filled room. In such emergencies, only a fire captain would have a camera to detect victims while other firefighters were left to manually scan the burning premises. Now, Central York has become the first fire department in Canada to order integrated thermal imaging cameras, known as iTIC. The cameras are built into firefighters’ breathing apparatus gear, freeing up their hands to provide vital firefighting tasks. The iTIC will help firefighters do their job more efficiently and safely in lifethreatening situations, Fire Chief Ian Laing said at an Oct. 23 demonstration of the iTICs at the depart-

"The equipment will aid firefighters to see in dark and smoky environments and help the rescue go quicker.

here, we’ve gone with a company that has integrated that technology into a piece equipment we already wear and that gives you both hands free," he said. "If you have to rescue a victim, you have your two hands free to do that. Although the technology has

been around for a while, this is the first time a company has been able to integrate it into a piece of equipment that we already wear." Recruit firefighter Josh Tibbitts said the cameras will let firefighters quickly scan a room for victims, exits and fire caught behind

walls. "In a fire situation, we can’t see because of smoke a majority of the time. This allows us to almost see through the smoke, cut through the smoke and see anyone that is there," he said. "It’s essentially a second set of eyes."

TERESA LATCHFORD tlatchford@yrmg.com Darlene Mills has one question at the top of her list: what’s in it for the students? The Newmarket mother of a Georgian College nursing student doesn’t see any silver lining for the students during the current college strike that has left more than 500,000 students out in the cold at 24 Ontario colleges. It was just announced today the faculty representatives of the Ontario Public Services Employees Union (OPSEU) and the College Employer Council (CEC) will head back to the negotiating table tomorrow. "The strike, which is now into its third week, is costing the students and parents dearly," Mills said. "I think we should get reimbursed for those losses." While her son has returned home as classes are not in session, she contin-

ues to pay $100-per-month for his parking permit and $500 in monthly rent to avoid losing his living quarters when professors get back into the classroom. "The communication surrounding this has been inadequate and unacceptable to say the least," she said. "We don’t know when they are negotiating or if the government is willing to take action to make class resume. I can’t be the only parent who has more questions than answers." When students do get the chance to get back to their post-secondary studies are they going to be expected to double their already taxing workload? Will classes run for an extra month in the summer to make up time and thus hinder their summer employment opportunities? What are the students who are trying to complete apprenticeship or co-op hours supposed to do? "We didn’t ask to go on

Newmarket mother Darlene Mills is calling for students to be compensated for any losses during the college strike and is concerned about how the time will be made up once they return. strike and the students and the parents didn’t get to vote either," she said. "Someone needs to be responsible for the suffering

caused by this and it shouldn’t be the students or the parents." This local mother isn’t alone in calling on the gov-

ernment and colleges to reimburse students as a Change.org petition calling for full-time and part-time students to be reimbursed

$30 per day and $20 per day, respectively, has gained 121,398 signatures. "We, the students, want to be in school and we want to learn. We are paying for it," the petition states. "If the two bargaining teams do not consider our educational and employment prospects as motive enough to reach an agreement, then perhaps a justifiable hit to the colleges’ bottom line will." Ontario advanced education and skills development minister Deb Matthews has publicly acknowledged the situation is impacting students at Queen’s Park. She met with petition organizers a week ago, but nothing was said about reimbursement and no commitment was made about the government ordering faculty back to class. The two parties are discussing contracts, job security, academic freedom and increased wages.

House sales begin to rebound Darcy Hayes, Say When defend Royal Horse Show title

LISA QUEEN lqueen@yrmg.com York Region’s house sales rut may be over, according to the latest numbers from the Toronto Real Estate Board. Sales increased 13.5 per in one month, jumping from 944 sales in September up to 1,072 sales in October. That is still down 42.9 per cent from October 2016. York’s sales mirror other regions in the Greater Toronto Area, said real estate broker Zoocasa, which analyzed the board’s figures. "Similar to the other TREB regions, the sales slump that York Region had been experiencing these past few months has ended," CEO Lauren Haw said. "While sales and average prices are still down from the highs that we saw a year ago, this was influenced by a shortage of inventory, which has also recovered this month. We’re

While sales in York are up, prices are down. In September, the average price of a resale home in the region was $991,339, which dipped to $961,431 in October, a decrease of 3 per cent. On a year-over-year ba-

sis, the average price is also down 3.5 per cent from October 2016’s average of $997,033. Active listings rose 3 per cent from September (4,537) to October 2017 (4,686), Zoocasa said. Compared to October 2016 (2,247), active listings increased by 108 per cent. This points to a shortage of inventory driving last year’s high sales and price figures, the broker said.

Darcy Hayes of Aurora and her mount, Say When, captured the $15,000 Braeburn Farms Hunter Derby for the second straight year Nov. 5 at the Royal Horse Show held as part of the 95th Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto. Riding third in the competition among 20 entries, Hayes and Say When scored 110 points including 10 high option points and

"I had a good feeling today because he warmed up so well for me before the class; he really shined today," said Hayes of her nine-year-old gelding, Say When. "Here at the Royal, it’s just that much more exciting because there’s more of a crowd. Friends come that wouldn’t necessarily come to a horse Reader-submitted content

All competitors qualified for the event based on results of through the Canadian Hunter Derby Series which runs the course of the season at horse shows across Canada.

EDITORIAL | OPINION

ABOUT US

Is it time for Remembrance Day holiday? While there hasn’t been a rallying cry for it this year, likely owing to the fact Remembrance Day falls on a Saturday, but rarely does a Nov. 11 go by without a call being issued to make the annual commemoration of the sacrifices made by our fallen soldiers and veterans an official holiday across the country. This past summer, a bill introduced by Nova Scotia Liberal MP Colin Fraser successfully passed in the House of Commons, granting Remembrance Day the same recognition as Canada Day and Victoria Day, but it doesn’t make Nov. 11 a nationwide statutory holiday as provincial and territorial governments hold legal dominion over that realm. As it stands, the three territories and six provinces recognize Remembrance Day as an official public holiday, with Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Quebec and Ontario standing as the four that do not. If it seems like encouraging those four provinces to align with the rest of the country is a simple matter, think again. Although making Nov. 11 a statutory holiday is an idea that usually gets bandied about in Ontario around this time of year, various individuals and groups, the Royal Canadian Legion among them, have argued that designating Remembrance Day a day off would do little to get more people out to their local cenotaph for the memorial services and raised concerns the public would ultimately overlook the solemnity of the date and treat it as just another day of rest. It’s an understandable fear as no one wants Remembrance Day to become little more than the "November long weekend" and see people more interested in partying and/or winterizing their cottages than taking time to remember the fallen and pay their respects. That said, Remembrance Day 2017 presents an opportunity in that it will allow us to get a better idea of how people would treat a Nov. 11 holiday as it falls on a day many of us have off. Next year’s Remembrance Day will land on a Sunday and will similarly permit us to see how many people will attend memorial services without the obstacle of the weekday work routine. If we’re able, all of us should take the time Saturday to attend a Remembrance Day service and/or parade to preserve the memory of the fallen and express gratitude to our veterans. After all, lest we forget. Will we make good on our commitment and come together to honour the fallen and show that a statutory Remembrance Day holiday could work, or will we use the day, as many feared, to sleep in and address personal projects? The choice is ours.

I request that the town focus on design elements that cause distress for current residents (or conversely, should allow for the current enjoyment of their property): Privacy - do not allow upper level balconies that overlook other’s backyards. Privacy - Do not allow windows on the sides of big houses or be sparing of them and ensure they are small. Privacy - Do not allow another house, built behind a house, to have full view of their neighbour’s backyard (within reason). Sunshine - Carefully consider the shadows that a new house will cast. Lights at night - Many new homes have down-

ward casting pot lights outside and are very bright. These should not be on night after night in a "look at me" fashion. Trees - That is the only thing the Committee of Adjustment seems to consider so perhaps that is going well. Sump pumps and pool equipment, etc. - should not impact the enjoyment/ integrity of the foundation of neighbouring properties by being relegated to the sides of already very narrow passageways between houses. Times for construction should only be permitted 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays excluding holidays. Bottom line: current residents have the right to enjoy the property they bought! Joyce Deutsch Aurora

HONDA FIT LX 2018: HONDA FINDS THE RIGHT FIT FIRST DRIVE

Jim Robinson

| Aurora | East Gwillimbury | Newmarket | Thursday, November 9, 2017

WHEELS

Metroland Media Honda likes to call the 2018 Fit a subcompact hatchback “without compromises.” And Fit is an apt name, not just because of the commodious interior, but also for the many ways it can be used. How they achieve this is with Honda’s Magic Seat, which is like a Swiss Army knife in the way it can be configured. First, Honda located the gas tank under the front seats, opening up room between the rear wheels. Second, the rear Magic Seat itself has four “modes” starting with the Utility Mode, where the seat is folded flat creating 1,492 litres of cargo volume and a cargo floor length of 1.7 m, big enough to swallow a mountain bike. In Long Mode, the driver can fold down the right side of the rear seat and fold back the front passenger seat to create a tunnel more than two metres long that can take a surfboard. In Tall Mode, the seat cushion can be folded backwards and up, creating 1,200 mm top to bottom. Refresh Mode is when the driver takes off the front head restraint of either front seat and folds either seat flat to create a very nice lounge chair for reading, snoozing or just relaxing with legs extended. All versions of the 2018 Fit are produced with a 1.5-litre direct injection twincam four-cylin-

Though winter officially doesn’t start until December 21, the 2018 Nissan Titan XD full-size pickup will be ready for the worst the season can throw at it with the arrival of a new Snow Plow Prep Package. The package, which includes high-capacity, heavy-duty front springs, will be available this fall for use with a range of commercial and personal snow plows from five leading snow plough manufacturers - Boss, Fisher, Meyer, SnowEx and Western. The Snow Plow Prep Package is available only on the Titan XD Crew Cab with 390 hp V8 gas engine. The Snow Plow Prep Package replaces the stock front springs with a higher capacity design, which increases front gross axle weight rating (GAWR) capacity by 575 lb (from 4,325 to 4,900 pound lb). This allows fitment of snow ploughs up to 786 lb (Titan XD Gas Crew Cab grade).

The Nissan Titan XD is ideal for commercial use such as snow plough duties, staking out a unique position in the segment between traditional heavy-duty and light-duty entries. It offers the effortless towing and hauling of the larger, more expensive heavy-duty trucks, yet has the fuel-efficiency, affordability and creature comforts of a half-ton pickup. Nissan Titan XD models are built on a unique frame and chassis to handle the demands of commercial use, including a fully boxed, fulllength ladder frame with added stiffness, vertical and lateral bending, and torsional rigidity versus Titan half-ton models. To maximize stability, handling and ride comfort, Titan XD uses a heavy-duty, highly stable suspension design. The front suspension, a double-wishbone design with stabilizer bar, is reinforced and tuned for hard use, and the stout rear axle utilizes hefty leaf springs and leaf bushings, along with twintube shock absorbers.

Honda Fit has gained worldwide popularity

above The interior of the 2018 Fit is logical in typical Honda fashion and features a new seven-inch centre stack touchscreen.

yorkregion.com

continued from page 11 popped a drag chute the way it slows for more economical travel. Tested here is the LX CVT, which brings with it the Honda Sensing suite of safety features that includes Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Collision Mitigation Brake Braking System (CMBS) incorporating Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) and Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) with Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Besides the multi-use interior, new for 2018 is a larger, seven-inch touchscreen for the infotainment that includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on all but the DX model. One of the little things I like is the cupholder set up high on the left side of the instrument panel. That is a great idea because you don’t have to look down to find your coffee. Now in its third generation, the Fit started life as the Honda Jazz and is now produced around the world in 10 plants and eight countries. For 2018 it retains a MacPherson strut suspension system on the front and a twist beam at the rear. Unchanged are disc brakes up front and drums at the back. With the CVT, especially in Econ, it can be sluggish off the line, but perks up nicely after the first few metres or so. Power with the manual transmission is 130 hp and 114 lb/ft of torque that falls slightly to 128 hp and 113 lb/ft with the CVT because it takes a few horses to run, but the increase in mileage is more than worth it. The LX rides on smallish 15-inch steel

wheels with plastic covers and is rather tall for a sub-compact hatch and thus is susceptible to strong side winds. The best part, besides the stowage, is how nimble it is, especially in its turning circle of 5.3 meters, which is pretty good for a frontdriver. Thanks to the high roofline, the windows are also big, which makes for great outward visibility. The Fit is nevertheless just over four meters long, thus pushing the boundary between what is a compact and what is a subcompact car. Thanks to the wedge styling, you don’t sense that length, but the resulting passenger volume of 2,710 litres is huge for a car in this class and you notice it immediately, especially if you are seated in the back. For this year a fifth trim level called the Sport has been added, because Honda has set pricing to be attractive to the widest range of not just Gen-Y, but Boomers too. If you fancy a sub-compact hatchback with the room of a compact, why not book a test drive and see if it’s the right Fit for you?

JIM’S TAKE What’s Best: Commodious interior, frugal at the pump and solid Honda built quality. What’s Worst: Doesn’t like being pushed around by side winds. What’s Interesting: The Magic Seat that can be used four ways to create everything from room for a mountain bike or surfboard to a lounge chair.

NEWS

TERESA LATCHFORD tlatchford@yrmg.com Ontario colleges are calling the vote. The College Employer Council has asked the province’s labour relations board to arrange a final vote and are asking faculty to return to the classroom after weeks of job action following the breakdown of the latest round of negotiations that began late last week. CEC claims it tabled an offer addressing the enhancement of full-time employment opportunities, increased academic freedom, pay increase and a boost in job security. But would not entertain boosting full-time employment positions to 50 per cent due to the cost. OPSEU rejected the col-

leges’ latest offer at the negotiating table calling it an unfair offer with the same agenda as the original offer, according to a memo to its members, which also stated a forced vote could extend the strike. According to reports, the colleges left the bargaining table with only one issue remaining, giving faculty more control over what they teach in their classrooms. While it is uncertain when students will be heading back to the classroom, Seneca College’s King Campus continues to work on plans for each program to help students complete their semester, spokesperson Emily Milic said. One thing is for sure, students can continue to plan their winter holiday

Susie Kockerscheidt/Metroland

About three dozen striking workers and their supporters picket at Seneca College’s King campus Oct. 16. break. "At this point, we can still confirm that there will not be any academic activ-

ity at Seneca during the holiday," she added. That means no classes, exams, test or assignments

between Dec. 22 at 6 p.m. and Jan. 2 at 7 a.m. When the strike was called, a number of colleg-

The Puzzler

es were on a scheduled weeklong break, so students have so far missed two full weeks of classes. However, of particular concern are students in apprenticeship and other programs that require a certain number of hours before provincial certification exams can be written. At the time of the strike, the colleges estimated the union’s proposals would cost an extra $250 million, which they can’t afford, and would lead to the loss of thousands of contract jobs. By head count, full-time faculty represent one-third of academic staff, and when measured by teaching hours they represent roughly half.

LAURA FINNEY lfinney@yrmg.com The trenches during the First World War were tough, wet and dangerous. "Constant rain, mud, rats running everywhere, disease, the smell of death around you," said Erin Cerenzia, vice president of the Newmarket Historical Society. "The physical conditions and the mental condi-

tions combined made for a truly horrific experience for these men." To help honour the war’s centennial, and Newmarket’s role in the war, the historical society has again constructed their interactive Trench Exhibit at Old Town Hall. This is the second year for the exhibit and this year they have added something new - a Vimy subway tunnel. The tunnels were used to transport soldiers and supplies to and from the battlefield. "We recognize the importance of commemorating the centenary of the First World War. Obviously, it is a very fine line, because it is a solemn and very serious event," said Cerenzia.

"But it is important history that has to be shared." While the exhibit does not contain the mud and diseases, she said seeing it gives a rough idea of what the experience was like. "When you just read it in textbook it doesn’t translate," she said. "When you walk through and you are in the beautiful, dry Old Town Hall, but still experiencing something quite similar to what was going on over there, I think it really causes everyone to pause and reflect." Volunteer Doug Scott built most of the exhibit. He did a lot of research and used photos he took when he toured some of the tunnels at Vimy. "The idea was, when

people walk through here, to give them a sense to what maybe their grandfathers or great-grandfathers had experienced," he said. The exhibit also features 3D replicas of carvings made by soldiers in the tunnels, artifacts and historical boards. "We want this to feel like you’ve gone to the war museum in Ottawa, and you are getting that rich important history of Newmarket’s time in the First World War," said Cerenzia. The exhibit will run until Nov. 18, Tuesday to Sunday, from 12:30 until 8 p.m.; and noon to 5 p.m. on Nov. 15. For more information visit newmarkethistoricalsociety.ca.

Walk through First World War with local projects Events connect residents to Remembrance Day JOHN CUDMORE jcudmore@yrmg.com They have brought the Great War to Newmarket. Actually, Newmarket Remembers World War I includes a series of themed attractions presented by the Town of Newmarket, Legion Branch 426 and Veterans Association and Newmarket Historical Society, intended as Remembrance Day-themed events around the national day of observance for war participants and casualties. Path of Remembrance connects a series of displays and interactive activities and brings to life the enormity of the First World War through a series of exhibits at three locations in the downtown area of New-

Within easy walking distance, the series of displays and exhibits is part of a largely interactive experience intended to mark Remembrance Day and the 100th anniversary of Vimy Ridge.

Laura Schembri, the Town of Newmarket’s supervisor of cultural studies, said the combination of attractions provides a glimpse into the historical period which helped define Canada as a nation. "If one walks the path,

they are making an observance and remembrance of not only ones that passed away but also (those who) served in (and survived) the war," said Schembri. "It provides a greater understanding of the sacrifice and extent of the war. "We’ve taken up the charge and are providing people with active ways to remember. This is a strategic approach to bringing it all together. It’s a wonderful way to make more impact." When the First World War broke out, Newmarket was a small town of 3,000 residents. Its response, however, was fierce and mighty. An overview of that response is recorded in a display entitled The Great War In Pictures And Objects at Elman W. Campbell Museum on Main Street. Museum curator Beth Hart said the exhibit, which opened Oct. 1, 2016, earned an extended display due to its popularity. The

display is comprised of mementos, uniforms, models, photos, correspondence and a trench scene and provides insight to a soldier’s experience. "Much of what is here is being lent by local people so there is a strong Newmarket presence," said Hart. "There is a small section of trench. It’s a re-creation to give people an idea what it might have been like." It will remain on display until Nov. 30 with visiting hours as follows: Tuesday to Saturday - 10 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m. More information is available by telephoning 905-953-5314. "It attracted so much attention that we decided it needed more exposure," said Hart. "I think because of the awareness based around the centennial of the First World War, a lot of people are interested." A few of blocks away at the Old Town Hall at 460 Bostford St., the recreation of a First World War trench

and Vimy Ridge Subway is being exhibited until Nov. 18. The exhibit also includes artifacts and film footage of Newmarket soldiers heading off to war. An international project entitled The World Remembers: A Remembrance For The Millions Who Lost Their Lives is on display at the Newmarket Library. Located on the lower level, the feature is a co-ordinated act of remembrance involving several countries. The millions of names of First World War soldiers are being honoured around the world in schools, libraries, universities, museums, city halls, churches and other organizations. It is on display until Nov. 11 The display’s availability hours are: Tuesday to Thursday - 9:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Friday and Saturday 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Additionally, banners sponsored by families and business along Main Street are memorials to soldiers killed in both world wars.

Newmarket’s role in Passchendaele ROBERT BUCHAN The name Passchendaele, now carved atop the rain soaked monument on D’Arcy Street, rocked the town to the core. The casualty reports had begun to come in. On Nov. 9, 1917, The Era reported "flags have been flying at half-mast in the Town for a few days in honour of our brave heroes." On that day, The Era reported the loss of Maitland Harold Goring, Herbert Roy Bogart, and Reginald Rustave Brunton, the son of a well-known Main Street merchant. Then, on Nov. 16, Thomas Jaffray Robinson was reported as killed in action. His mother was the head of the Newmarket Red Cross Society. His father was not only the town solicitor, but also had been a councillor for 25 years, and the mayor for three years. Heartbroken, Mr. Robinson drew a thick

black line around that day’s page of his diary, and wrote "My Boy" in large black letters at the top of the page. He could not be consoled. He died five days later. On the day of his funeral, The Era reported, "Out of respect for the deceased the high school was dismissed at 3 o’clock, and nearly all the stores closed during the funeral." On Nov. 23, The Era listed George Stanley Mortimer killed in action, and on Nov. 30, The Era stated that William George Eldridge had made the supreme sacrifice. Eldridge had just won the Distinguish Conduct Medal five months earlier. Herbert George Blackall, stretcher-bearer, had also died of his wounds and, Lewis Hawtin, also acting as a stretcher-bearer was reported missing. He would never be found. The Passchendaele battlefield in Belgium near Ypres, had been fought over for three years. It was

to continue the attack. The Canadians captured the village of Passchendaele at a cost of 16,404 casualties. That rain-soaked word Passchendaele, atop our Great War Peace monument, is a testament to those eight soldiers and the heartache and loss felt in Newmarket. That memory and grief has faded away over the last 100 years, but the monument stands as a tribute to all our fallen. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, will we remember them?

“The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.” ~ activist Mahatma Gandhi Is the system broken? Are we failing our most vulnerable? This is one article in an ongoing series by Metroland Media, York Region examining these questions - and talking to the people who are working for change.

l Continued from front

But when the Hughes arrived in hospital, they found her lying on a stretcher, unable to speak. Paramedics pulled them aside with more disturbing news. They had found blood on Carol’s underwear. Melodie brought her motherin-law to the bathroom to change into a gown for chest x-rays and was alarmed to see the older woman’s arm and shoulder badly bruised. Her breast was black and blue with another contusion. Carol had been injured somehow, Melodie thought; why hadn’t the home informed them? Back at the home in the wee hours of the morning, she says she helped her mother into bed, then queried staff and found the home’s records showed only chest pain - nothing about unexplained bruises, bleeding or a fall. Melodie says she emailed the director of care, telling her she would be back first thing in the morning to take Carol for further hospital testing and to meet to discuss her concerns. But then came more shocking news. Staff informed her they’d discovered, during her bath on Nov. 18, that Carol had more bruises and these were "below the waist". In Carol’s room, Melodie examined her mother-in-law. Dark bruises covered her pelvic and vaginal areas. She looked again at the shoulder bruising and saw what appeared to be a bite mark. Melodie vomited into the garbage can. Carol, meanwhile, was crying, traumatized, in a state of delirium, unable to walk or talk, feed herself or even sit up in bed. They took her to Southlake where she remained for 13 days. Her vaginal bleeding lasted for 17 days. Melodie demanded answers but the director of care at Mackenzie Place had few. "She told me, ’We dropped the ball. I don’t know what else you want me to say to you.’ "’I want you to tell me what happened,’" Melodie said she responded with anger. "This is not my mom. Yesterday she was walking around the residence

Courtesy of Melodie Hughes

Melodie Hughes (left), shown here with her mother-in-law Carol, is part of a class action lawsuit against Revera Inc., a privately owned Canadian company that provides long-term care and seniors housing retirement residences. Carol lived in Mackenzie Place, a Revera home in Newmarket.

Family left in tatters and today she doesn’t know what a fork is. I want to know, why wasn’t a head-to-toe exam done right away? And I want to know where your notes are.’" The Hughes contacted police, who decided Carol needed to undergo a sexual assault forensic exam. The procedure, Melodie says, was a nightmare, one that traumatizes her to this day. "I had to hold my mom’s legs while they swabbed her and took pictures of her and in the meantime she’s screaming," she pauses, wipes away the tears. "I was sick to my stomach. I couldn’t believe this was happening." They drove Carol to a friend’s house where the older woman

spent the night crying in terror and pain. Mackenzie Place staff, meantime, and unbeknownst to the Hughes, were busy laundering all of Carol’s clothing - something the home was under expressed, long-standing orders not to do, Melodie says. It was in her formal plan of care, made clear in a large sign hung in her private room: staff must not launder her clothes. That would be done by Carol’s family. "And yet, within a 24-hour period, they’d bathed my mom and laundered everything." Is this, she wonders, why the police-ordered rape kit found no evidence of sexual assault? In a letter dated Dec. 1, 2015, Yvonne Carvalho, Mackenzie

Place executive director, told Melodie an internal investigation by Revera did not come up with conclusive evidence "but I can surmise that your mother-in-law probably had a fall in the shower of her bathroom where she sustained the bruising to her upper body and broke her glasses. She may also have sustained the bruises to her lower body at that time on the ledge of the shower." She may also have had an additional fall trying to climb over the grab bars beside the toilet, something she’d been seen doing in the past, Carvalho added. "In regard to the bruising that Mrs. Hughes sustained," she wrote, "I sincerely apologize but we have not been able to identify anyone who witnessed your

mother-in-law fall." "They say staff noticed Mom climbing the grab bars before. But if that is the case, where is that in the records, that they’d seen her do this and what did they do about it?" Melodie says. "This was the first we’d ever heard about it." The police investigation was also inconclusive. "All I kept hearing from everyone was ’dementia, dementia.’ It was as if they viewed her - a senior with cognitive deficiencies nearing the end of her life - as a throwaway person." "A police offer told me ’Well, she could tell us Minnie Mouse raped her and who’d know it was true?’ But what about a fouryear-old? Or someone with autism? Just because they can’t communicate, do you not investigate?" The Hughes vowed Carol would never return to a Revera home again. For 11 days, Carol lived in the comfortable birthing room on the maternity floor at Southlake where the family received compassion, care and crisis counselling. From there she was moved to Southlake Village - but Carol was never the same again. The experience left the Hughes family in tatters. Peter fell into a deep depression, unable to get out of bed. He lost his job of 14 years. Melodie was already off work with a sick and disabled son. They borrowed $12,000 from a friend so they wouldn’t lose the house. Eventually, they moved to Sudbury where there was cheaper real estate and family support. "I still have nightmares on a daily basis. My 24-year-old [disabled son] thinks his Nana was raped because he was sick. This has affected my entire life." But in the end, the Hughes say they found some solace. Carol came to live with them in their home for the last few months of her life. "She was with us until she took her last breath," Melodie says. "For more than a week she hadn’t opened her eyes. She kept pushing away my hand away, wouldn’t eat. Her brain stopped her from being able to swallow. I said ’Mom, if you don’t let me feed you you’re going to have to go back into care.’ And one big tear rolled down her face." Carol passed away Dec. 16, 2016, her son, daughter-in-law and friend at her side. For Carol, the battle is over, but for Melodie, it has just begun. She has joined with two law firms in the Toronto area that are launching a class-action lawsuit against Revera. For more on this, see Part 2, next week.

In baseball parlance, however, he went to where the play led him. It may seem an oddity in these days of Metroland sport specialization at early Pete Orr age, but Orr was a well-rounded athlete growing up in Newmarket. He was adept at several. Ultimately, choosing baseball over the others was only a matter of time. "I enjoyed all sports in high school," said the graduate of Newmarket High School, who went on to play at Galveston College before embarking on a professional baseball career. "I played football and basketball in high school. It was hard for me to choose one way or the other. It saddens me to see kids concentrate on one sport at a young age. "People are supposed to play sports for physical activity and to be on a team and in team situations. It’s not about making the big leagues or the NHL." Orr compiled a .257 career batting average in 443 games during eight seasons in the major leagues with stops with the Atlanta Braves, Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals. Now 38, Orr represented Canada on several occasions, including the 2004 Olympics in Athens and the 2015 Toronto Pan Am Games where he scored the decisive run in a gold medal win over the United States. He retired after the 2015 season as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers organization for which he now scouts. He also coaches with the Canadian junior men’s baseball program. He will be inducted along with soccer founder Jim Richardson and a 1967-born group of minor hockey players which won three Ontario Minor Hockey Association championships during the 1980s.

Building Roads that Build Community

Coaching issue is high on school sports list of concerns On a list of red flag issues facing high school sports, coaching is a top-two item. On a given day, and depending on circumstances, it is a topic that could top the hit parade as the most crucial concern for the future of student athletics in York Region’s high schools. The dilemma is fairly straightforward: the supply pool is not always stocked with teachers willing or able to step forward as coaches. Before anyone gets too excited and starts assigning detentions in this direction, it is acknowledged that a great many teachers do step up - voluntarily, it should be noted - to coach high school teams or at least assist community volunteers. Even without documented evidence, it is universally recognized there are holes in the York Region Athletic Association’s roster due to a lack of teachercoaches despite a record number of student-athletes participating during the 2016-17 school year. Just as certain, there are also incidences where schools are unable to find a staff member to take the lead role for a team. The reasons may vary from expertise to personal commits, but the result is the same. The days when the hiring process for teachers could include questions about possible extra-curricular contributions are long in the past. It is a controversial point, but also too bad

JOHN CUDMORE Cuddy Shark because coaching is teaching as teaching is coaching. Non-classroom interaction between student-athletes and teachers is considered a healthy situation and provides a unique bonding opportunity. Three school boards in Ontario, including two in the Ottawa area, have eased requirements that teachers are mandatory on the sidelines. That opens the door for community-based coaches to oversee high school teams even if a teacher on staff cannot be available. But is it a slippery slope? The presence of community coaches helps provide a larger pool of candidates and therefore more opportunity for teams to exist. It probably is a concept, though, that is unlikely to occur in York Region. There are many logistical issues and a number of philosophical issues that stand in the way of taking teachers completely out of the mix. Hence, it probably is too radical to think a teacherless society is anywhere near reality. "I’m shocked it even hap-

pened at all so I don’t think it will happen here," said Mark Arsenault, YRAA’s athletic co-ordinator. "The reservation will always be accountability and liability issues. "It’s hard to assure you would have the values we have in our school system. Teachers are trained to deal with students in the school setting. "My concern is that it takes just one incident," continued Arsenault, who is by no means a policymaker on this issue. "I just think there is a lot better control if a member of the board is (present). There’s more accountability." That is not to say all nonteacher coaches are the same. Not at all. The topic might be worth a debate, though. The fine line that needs to be straddled, and balanced, is maintaining philosophical values. In many minds, high school sports are an extension of the school experience and community. If a school team or two do not operate because of a lack of a teacher willing to oversee a program, is there not an obligation toward interested students to provide a coaching alternative? Perhaps yes, in an argument of logic. But, in reality, not always. "I suppose if we opened it up, in a few areas we would have more teams but I don’t know if it would be that many," said Arsenault. "We have two or three schools that would benefit from community coaches, for sure. "School sports is school sports, not club sports. Some people would argue there are too many sports and some would say there are not enough." *Twinney rink upgrade The facelift at the Ray Twinney Complex main rink is nearing completion. The latest stage in the reno is swapping out the original gold and orange end zone seats for blue to complete a conversion process that started initially started in 2004.

There seems a bit of a trend when it comes to Cameron Ormond. She wins. A lot. In fact, the Aurora High School firstyear senior made it three consecutive Ontario provincial high school cross-country titles Saturday when she scampered to victory in the girls senior final in Petawawa. Making her debut at the senior level - a two-year age group - Ormond outdistanced a field of 282 runners to claim OFSAA gold for a third straight year. The Grade 11 student beat her nearest rival, Jocelyn Chau of De La Salle College in Toronto, in the 6,200-metre race by just over 15 seconds to win in 22 minutes, 32.2 seconds. "I was pretty nervous," said Ormond, who now owns six OFSAA gold medals in total when combining the spring track and field season. "I didn’t know what to expect because I hadn’t run against any of the top girls this year. I was hoping for a top three."

CREATIVE PASSION WITH AURORA STUDENTS

Miranda Shen has accomplished more in 14 years than many people will in a lifetime. The gifted young artist has already had her work featured in numerous publications and has received many art awards. It is not only Miranda’s artwork that resonates with others, but her generous spirit as well. Miranda and her sister, Valentina, have been volunteering at retirement homes for the past five years, where they play piano, and join residents for a variety of activities. After her great-grandmother inspired her to raise money so seniors could have the most exemplary care at their retirement home, Miranda donated one of her paintings, “In the Garden”, which sold for $500.00, to the Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care in Scarborough.

| Aurora | East Gwillimbury | Newmarket | Thursday, November 9, 2017

ART WITH HEART - TALENTED TEEN SHARES

The Mensa (high IQ society) member also bequeathed a rainbow coloured digital painting to the SickKids Hospital DIPG Brain Tumour Foundation in honour of Jordana Fiorini, who lost her battle with cancer at the age of 10. In addition to using her artistic talents to assist causes close to her heart, Miranda also hopes to inspire other young people through her work. On Friday, November 3rd, she held a special art showcase and presentation for the grade six, seven and eight students at Aurora Preparatory Academy. “I wanted to speak to the older students at Aurora Prep, because I felt like they are at an important age where they need to start preparing for high school. At such a young age, there have been many times when people didn’t believe in my abilities, and I wanted to let the students know that anything is possible, and the sky is the limit,” says Miranda. “I hoped to inspire them through my presentation by allowing them to believe that it is possible to follow their dreams. Aurora Prep is an amazing school, and just walking through the halls allowed me to see such well-behaved students with true potential.” Aurora Preparatory Academy is a small private, co-educational school that promotes the hard work and altruistic characteristics which Miranda espouses. The school is governed by three basic principles: Foundation, Community, and Excellence. These tenets create a school environment that is encouraging, challenging, and dedicated to the development and well-being of both its students and the community as a whole. Having Miranda come and share her personal journey fit perfectly into the school’s mandate to inspire learners to find the things they are passionate about and to always strive for personal success. Aurora Preparatory Academy, winner of the 2016 Character Community Award for Private Schools, offers a distinctly personalized approach to education but remains one of the most affordable private schools in York Region. Visit www.aurora-prep.com to learn more about the quality of their programme and their commitment to the whole child. 2018 is shaping up to be a busy year for Miranda as she prepares to premiere her spring art exhibition at Southlake Regional Health Centre. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the hospital. Contact jennifer.shen@rogers.com for more information about this upcoming event. Miranda Shen is a true example that you can achieve your dreams at any age if you put your heart into it.

Five Big Reasons We’re Small… 1. Community At Aurora Prep, our small community allows each child to know everyone by name. Our students interact with one another across the grades – offering help, guidance and friendship. We greet one another in the hallway, eat Lunch as a school, play together at Break and participate in numerous activities (including the annual School Musical, Family Ski Day and Winter Carnival) as a whole. At Aurora Prep, your child is truly part of a community, not just one in a crowd.

2. Individual Support We recognize that children are not cookie-cutter students. They learn at their own pace and often in different ways. We know that encouragement and support go a long way in producing capable, hard-working and successful learners. With our small class sizes, teachers are able to answer questions promptly, follow-up to ensure understanding and provide enrichment or review. Work is marked daily and support is on-going. Aurora Prep Students develop confidence knowing that we are behind them 100%.

3. Accountability Just as we teach our students to be responsible for their work, their actions and their words, our teachers and staff are equally accountable. We don’t hide behind red tape and bureaucracy. We have chosen to be part of this unique school because we believe

in education, dedication and commitment. Every teacher is involved in the day-to-day running of the school. We oversee Clubs and teams, offer academic assistance during Breaks and after school, and are devoted to the overall well-being of our students. We proudly model hard-work, positive attitudes and a love for learning.

4. Involvement & Participation Aurora Prep has found the perfect balance between opportunity and involvement. Although small, we offer all the specialties that parents (and students) want in a private school. We have an abundance of sports Teams, after-school Clubs, music, art, French, skating, swimming, field trips and more! We realize that active children are happy children. With fewer students overall, the potential to become involved is enormous. Our atmosphere is one of active participation where joining activities, giving back to the community and interacting with others happens each and every day.

5. Communication & Accessibility Aurora Prep prides itself on its open-door policy. We believe that our most successful students are a result of the positive working relationship between parents, teachers and students. When everyone is committed to supporting and nurturing the academic and social development of children, they flourish. While we strongly promote independence, self-reliance and personal responsibility, we also know it is important to keep families apprised of their child’s daily successes and struggles. And, by working together, we ensure that no child gets lost in the shuffle!

Our small-by-design approach to education is unbelievably personal, effective and impactful. Let us show you why!
